“From creating a custom training experience for our team, to helping us reach a broad pool of disabled talent through their employment networks, Understood has been a joy to work with. The Understood team really cares about making the work environment (and the world!) better for folks with disabilities, and it shows.”

“Understood’s team was a true partner in rolling out our disability inclusion education for Culture Amp. They worked alongside my team to customize the training to the needs of our company. The initial training is comprehensive and was received well by our Campers (employees). We are eager to find additional opportunities to work with the Understood team in the near future through our ERGs.”
