- The introductory workshop is a three-hour training to understand the basics about gender, sexuality, and sexual orientation.
- The 2.0 workshop is an expansive look at the history and background of LGBTQ+ culture and communities.
- Trans 101 is a third workshop that explores trans identities, experiences, and needs, and the ways in which we can best support trans individuals and community.
