Course Facilitator:
Michael Woods, Founder of Inclusive Sport Design
"I think the course was great! It was really helpful to take an in depth look at all the different areas that make up an inclusive program. My organization had already started on our inclusion journey prior to me starting this course but I still found it very useful especially Challenge Five - Participant Options. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to increase inclusion in their program."
