Take an e-learning course on intercultural capability
This course from the Ministry of Ethnic Communities has four modules focused on:
- understanding what culture is
- impacts culture has on communication and behaviour
- providing tools and methods for improving people's ability to communicate across cultural boundaries.
The programme is interactive and self-directed, meaning you can move through it at your own pace. Each of the four modules builds on the previous one.
