Those who complete the module are eligible to claim the Digital Badge in UDL from the National Forum for Teaching and Learning.

Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Training
A pilot programme of face-to-face Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Training was delivered jointly by the Director of Diversity & Inclusion and the Equality Officer in 2017/18, with both student and staff groups taking part.
The training covers key EDI concepts, Trinity policies and diversity stats, and a variety of practical scenarios. It concludes with a goal-setting exercise for ongoing progress after the training. Feedback has been very positive and it is intended to rollout the training to further groups in the coming months.
Gender Identity Training
Trinity has a comprehensive Gender Identity and Gender Expression Policy which gives practical guidance on how to be inclusive of all gender identities in the Trinity context. As part of the implementation of this policy, and Trinity's general commitment to equality and diversity, Transgender Equality Network Ireland (TENI) have been engaged to deliver introductory training in gender identity and transgender inclusion.
