Creative Equity Training
Watch this space for the launch of a new training portal in 2026!
Creative Equity Training is a flexible, self-paced online learning program designed specifically for people working across the arts, screen and creative industries.
Built by Diversity Arts Australia and led by artists and practitioners with lived experience, the training supports organisations to move beyond intention into practice, embedding racial equity into everyday decision-making, leadership, programming, employment and audience engagement.
Grounded in the nationally recognised Creative Equity Toolkit, it offers clear, practical learning without jargon.
Creative Equity Training
Move beyond policy statements toward embedded processes and sustained change. Our training provides the national authority on cultural diversity and racial equity in the arts, drawing on over 20 years of sector-leading experience.
Creative Equity Training builds the skills, confidence, and shared language needed to embed racial equity across creative workplaces. Developed by Diversity Arts Australia, the program responds directly to the realities of the creative sector—from small organisations at different stages of growth to major institutions navigating public accountability and complex workforces.
The training is delivered through short, self-paced online modules that staff can complete in their own time. Content is practical, scenario-based, and grounded in lived experience, drawing on years of Fair Play delivery, sector research, and advocacy. Rather than abstract policy, the program prioritises practical change and recognises that equity is an ongoing practice, not a box to be ticked. It supports individuals and organisations in embedding racial equity into everyday decision-making in ways that are achievable, accountable, and sustainable.
