The Knowledge EDGEŠ provides the business case for learning about differences and defines the term "diversity" in a way that is easy to understand and is inclusive of everyone.

Participants learn that employment laws began in the early 1900s to protect worker's rights, which places the EEOC laws within a broader historical context.
