Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

Here at JBM we pride ourselves on being committed to banish discrimination and promote equality and diversity for all. The organisation strives to create a culture which encapsulates inclusion and team working. Key target areas include facilitating diversity of opportunity to all learners, organisations & employees; remaining vigilant and understanding the impact of discrimination.   

JBM is committed to taking full account of information about protected characteristic groups defined in the Equality Act.  We work hard to identify groups at risk of not having equal access to assessment opportunity and contribute to the knowledge and expected behaviours of all stakeholders on Equality and Diversity challenges.
