What happened to me whilst studying at this provider will stay with me forever, but I will use it in my quest to ensure these businesses do better. Despite my disclosure of a disability at the start of the course, I was reminded of the persistent, systemic failure to treat people with disabilities with basic dignity and respect. Was that really too much to ask?There were several members of the training team, I was gaslighted, belittled, ignored, made to feel invisible and unworthy, and my needs were dismissed as if they simply didn’t matter. The trauma I experienced silenced me for a long time to the point I even gaslighted myself. Was I the problem? No, Angela, you were NOT. They were. I was laying in my hospital bed with stroke symptoms and still determined to attend class, I did! I will no longer be silenced!Those living with disabilities, who are neurodivergent, and anyone facing mental health challenges deserve more than lip serviced promises of “inclusion” yes, that old chestnut. We deserve to be listened to, believed, and treated as equals. Too often, organisations are quick to congratulate themselves on “diversity” while failing, and I was certainly failed by this training company, and I thoroughly enjoyed the cybersecurity domain as well.Creating environments where everyone can succeed should have been their mantra. Instead, they withdrew me from the course, brushed me under the carpet, and ceased communication. NEVER AGAIN....*There was a Sikh lady, absolutely lovely a tutor and ex lecturer I believe. She absolutely was not involved in this behaviour, in fact she had a lot of empathy and understanding.
