I really enjoyed the SOGI course. I believe that it not only helped me in a healthcare setting, it also helped me be more conscious and aware of social interactions outside of it. I really learned how to communicate respectfully because of this course, thank you.

I felt that the eLearning course was excellent. I felt that it contained a lot of up to date info that I wasn’t aware of and even as someone who works in the LGBTQ+ space.

In my opinion, the SOGI eLearning program is an invaluable resource for individuals seeking to broaden their understanding of sexual orientation and gender identity. The course is well-structured and straightforward, covering a broad range of topics, from SOGI basics to the particular issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community. I found the section on offering supportive care to LGBTQ+ patients particularly insightful, as it is an aspect where healthcare providers often require training. In general, I strongly recommend this course to anyone seeking to learn more about SOGI and how to be more accepting of LGBTQ+ individuals.
