All Male training course?

Some quick facts. I work for a public employer.

The overall breakdown for all employees is around 55% male staff 45% female.

Within my particular division however this is 25% male and 75% female.

There are 50 "entry level" managers within my division of which 20% are male.

We are having a new system installed. Senior management have selected 5 people out of the 50 managers to undertake the training and these staff will then role this onwards to the rest of us and our staff.

All 5 selected are men.

Apparently there is no issue here.

AIBU to wonder if the new system has a very special button that can only be pressed with a penis?

@3littlemonkeys82 well that information was missing. They aren't who I would choose unless there is something that we both don't know.

We don't know about the special button 🤣

I've raised it, there's not much more I can do now as as you said it could be seen that on the surface I'm looking for an issue that isn't there. Actually I quite like all of the selection on a personal basis, and do not feel it's my place to point out any shortcomings they may have.

I just hope moving forward they'll start to look at inclusion and diversity a bit more carefully.
