Dreaded LGBTQIA+ training approaching. What do I need to know?

[RandySavage]

Hello

Next week I have compulsory alphabet training. I have been unable to find out much about it, such as the name of the provider or an outline of the session. It will last for a half day.
The company I work for is pretty cool, and there have been few suggestions of TRAism in the past. Nobody has added pronouns to their work email, no one has asked for mine.

However, I’m dreading this session. I fear they will ask for my pronouns and I’m not sure how I’ll respond.
Any advice? What do I need to know before I go in? Should I just sit tight and say nothing (I like my job, and I do genuine good)? Am I worrying over nothing?

Thanks for any helpful suggestions.

I would complain that the trainer had no understanding of or ability to work with your residents/peoples needs, and that the training was therefore meaningless to the intended audience. With a great example of barbecue and as you said words like heteronormative. And something like ‘we need some value for money in the initiatives we take on and to get this for anything educational we need qualified trainers for our peoples needs, this lot delivered exactly the same thing they would to a bunch of accountants in a corporate finance department.

OP, I really do think you should speak up about the training session; that type of audience requires any speaker to adapt their language and pitch regardless of the topic.

I've never had any training that didn't ask for feedback. This seems to, desperately, call for some quality feedback.

I'm hysterically grateful to only have worked for small to medium companies run by old school bosses.

I would say 'I' and 'me' and say nothing else is relevant as you don't care how other people refer to you when you are not there

Whoops, late to the party, will rtft
