What Is Cultural Competency Training?

Cultural competency training is a structured learning approach that equips professionals with the skills to communicate effectively, collaborate respectfully, and navigate business situations across different cultural contexts. Unlike general cultural awareness programs that focus on knowledge alone, cultural competency training emphasizes practical application and behavioral change to drive measurable workplace outcomes.

Cross Cultural Training for Business

  • Social Identity Group - The distinct cultural norms of ethnic, religious, social, or demographic groups.
  • Organizational - The unique culture reflecting an organization's vision, mission, and leadership.
  • Functional - The subcultures within departments, such as IT versus marketing.
  • Team - The culture developed within a team, often driven by the team leader.
  • Individual (inter and intra-personal) - Each person's unique culture shaped by upbringing, education, and career experiences.

How Our Cultural Training Programs Work

The first step in developing a culture training program is to determine the needs of your organization. During the consultation phase, we will work with you to learn more about your business or organization and to define the specific training needs you have. 

Based on your needs, we will develop a culture training solution that directly addresses those needs. The training program we develop will provide solutions to the specific needs you have and will focus on outcomes that will positively impact your business. 

With the program developed, we will then work with you to determine the best way to deliver the training. We can provide online or on-site training, as well as full and half day programs. 

Once the training is completed, we will provide you with the data and results to make actionable decisions for your business. We will also work to determine any additional opportunities for further training that might benefit your business.
