Testimonials
Orlando Science Center
JoAnn Newman | President & Chief Executive Officer
Something that sets this apart from other training is the way that we engage as participants. This is not a trainer lecturing from the front of the room, calling on those who raise their hands. It’s more like having a leader (who has devoted their life to this work) guiding us through a set of complex interactions and helping us understand ourselves and how we can be part of a positive systemic change.

Thank you for carefully listening to our goals and incorporating them into the learning in thoughtful ways. You are masterful facilitators and did a fabulous job moving our community forward with a deeper understanding of equity, powerful learning, and inclusion for our students.

Jaron Keener | Senior Project Manager
The IDEAL Center team is inspiring and a guiding light for those committed to creating lasting positive change. They are so experienced and knowledgeable, creating a truly safe environment where I felt comfortable breaking down my walls and participating in frank and honest conversations around diversity, equity, access, and inclusion issues. They provided a guiding hand but were nimble and observant enough to allow for a variety of personal transformations.
