CONTRACTOR ONLY COURSES

The Be More Than A Bystander Program was put together by the Ending Violence Association of BC in conjunction with the BC Centre for Women in the Trades.

This course is to help end gender-based harassment, bullying, and violence in the workplace and how everyone can play a role in making workplaces safer and more respectful.

This program is put in place to facilitate a culture where inappropriate behaviors such as discrimination, harassment and bullying are not tolerated; and to increase employer outreach and support to facilitate retention and advancement of women, including leadership positions.

NOTE: This workshop is intended for males only.
