Description
Formerly known as 'Dufferin Tourism Trails,' our restructured training program, Level Up Dufferin, is designed to drive impactful change within our community—starting with our local businesses! Through this initiative, we offer FREE training, online resources, and a recognition program in key areas such as LGBTQ+ safe space, social and environmental responsibility, and business accessibility.
The Dufferin Biz Hub (a social enterprise of the Dufferin Board of Trade) believes in the power of business to drive positive change in our community. With the transformation of our previous 'Tourism Trails Training' into the enhanced Level Up Dufferin, we are providing business owners with the tools to align their operations with their values.
Available training sessions include:
Accessible Business & LGBTQ+ Safe Space Training
Socially & Environmentally Responsible Business Training
The training programs were initially created under the Dufferin Tourism Trails brand, thanks to a FedDev Tourism Grant. This grant allowed us to develop custom content crafted by post-secondary educators, industry experts, and individuals with lived experience.
Join us in making a difference. Take the first step toward a better community with Level Up Dufferin.
We have a limit of 2 employees per business for attendance to accommodate our seating space of 12 comfortably. If you are interested in an on-site training session with your entire team, please contact our Communications Manager, Jaemilyn to learn more. (jaemilyn@dufferinbot.ca)
