AODA training gives employees/volunteers the basic knowledge about accessibility, and how it influences people with disabilities. We often think of disabilities as either physical or visible. However, AODA includes all disabilities: physical, visible, and non-visible disabilities, such as learning and mental health disabilities. Employees who take AODA-specific training on customer service learn how to provide excellent customer service to people of all abilities. For example, when interacting with an individual with vision impairment always identify yourself when you approach them. Also speak directly to them, not their service animal or guide. If you need to leave, let the person know. Whereas, if an individual has a mobility disability, you don’t necessarily have to identify yourself, but you should never touch their equipment without permission

This is an introductory, three- hour course that is for individuals working in health care. Training is delivered by the Indigenous Primary Health Care Council (IPHCC). The IPHCC recognizes that cultural competency is not limited to simply acquiring knowledge about a culture. The IPHCC’s cultural safety approach accounts for the social and historical contexts, as well as structural and interpersonal power imbalances that shape one’s health experiences. The Anishinaabe Mino’Ayaawin is an approach that integrates cultural awareness, sensitivity, competency, humility, and safety.  Anti-Indigenous racism has profound negative impacts on the health and wellness of Indigenous communities in Ontario and across Canada. To support equitable care for First Nations, Inuit and Métis people, the IPHCC aims to educate the broader health care system through transformative, decolonizing, Indigenous-informed coordinated approaches and strategies.
