Investors in Diversity
Level 1
The National Centre for Diversity’s Level 1 Award helps organisations to start their journey towards progressively embracing equality, diversity and inclusion.
This cost and human resource effective option is undertaken through an online Equality Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) impact assessment which incorporates stakeholder groups and provides a baseline impact assessment on your organisation’s policies, practices and procedures.
At its simplest it allows you to demonstrate that you have the credentials and independent accreditation to secure public sector funding and contracts.
As the assessment is carried out externally, validation has real credibility with your staff and external stakeholders across a wide range of sectors whether they are funders, service users, customers, pupils and parents.
It’s a great way to benchmark against similar organisations as well as providing a baseline from which to move forward to clearly show your stakeholders that you have a real commitment to embracing EDI.
Another major benefit of the level 1 assessment is that a validation can be achieved in a short timeframe – you could do it within 4 weeks.
Once a final assessment has been made we will provide you with a comprehensive report which identifies those areas which will help you to raise standards in your organisation. If you are successful in achieving the IiD level 1 award you will receive an IiD certificate and will be entitled to use a logo on your corporate literature.
The level 1 award represents real value for money with prices starting from just £550. Confirmed NCVO Charity members receive a further 5% discount.
