Professional standards training and certification that turns policy into protection.

The Equality Act 2010 (updated 2024) places a clear duty on employers to take all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment. With further strengthening expected in 2026, including greater emphasis on protection from third-party harassment, organisations are under increasing pressure to demonstrate not just intent, but evidence.

The question is no longer “have you done something?” It’s “can you prove it’s working?”

Across high-risk and high-trust environments, from customer homes to corporate offices, we give your people absolute clarity on safe, professional conduct.

The Problem

“It was only banter.”
A comment that went unchecked.
A boundary that wasn’t clearly defined.
A policy that existed but wasn’t lived.

One inappropriate comment. One safeguarding failure. One complaint mishandled. One incident amplified online. The cost is human and commercial: legal claims, regulatory scrutiny, reputational damage and lost contracts.

What we do

We translate policy into practical behaviour through:

Professional conduct training
Sexual harassment prevention
Safeguarding clarity
Behavioural standards certification

Who we work with

Businesses where staff enter client homes or public spaces. Education settings responsible for safeguarding and statutory RSE.

Local authorities and public bodies requiring defensible standards.

Different sectors. One outcome: protection.

The Outcome

Clear standards.
Confident staff.
Reduced exposure.
Defensible compliance.
Protected reputation.

about how we supported his workforce

“The professional standards training and certification programme from Engendering Change really delivered in helping us protect our clients, our colleagues and our company from behavioural risk. What was less expected, but equally valuable, was the wider cultural shift it created across the business. It did not simply increase awareness or change individual behaviours, it helped shift attitudes, challenge accepted norms and create a more accountable culture throughout the organisation. The result has been genuine culture change, not just compliance.”

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jo is doing incredibly important work around preventing sexual harassment in the workplace. What really stands out to me is the way she approaches a subject that organisations simply cannot afford to treat as a tick box exercise. She makes difficult conversations feel accessible, practical and relevant, while never losing sight of how serious the subject is. If you’re responsible for people, culture or leadership within an organisation and want to create a genuinely safer workplace, I would absolutely recommend speaking to Jo. This is the kind of training businesses need to be taking seriously.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Engendering Change delivered a series of workshops for all our staff at Comserv focused on preventing bullying, harassment and sexual harassment. Jo tailored the training to our business, using relatable case studies to generate discussion and bring our Code of Conduct to life. The session I attended was informative, interesting and, despite the subject matter, fun. I would definitely recommend Jo and Engendering Change to other organisations looking for engaging, relevant training that their people can genuinely relate to. Julie Strutt, Comserv

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jo's delivery is what really makes this training stand out. Her storytelling captivates the room and she manages to keep difficult subjects fun and light-hearted whilst remaining professional throughout. The training has definitely landed within our office and I can already see positive change. I'm also really interested to see how that change is reflected through the follow-up questionnaires over time. I would highly recommend Jo and Engendering Change to organisations wanting training that actually engages people and makes an impact.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jo recently delivered a personalised 1-2-1 workshop on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) that exceeded my expectations. As the Founding Director of a CIC, balancing delivery with business management can be a challenge, but Jo's tailored approach ensured the training was directly relevant to both my personal learning style and the needs of my organization. As someone with dyslexia, absorbing information from policies or legal updates isn’t always easy for me. Jo’s engaging and tailored teaching style made the material accessible and impactful. Taking this time to upskill has empowered me to align our policies, procedures, and team with best practices in EDI. Jo’s deep expertise shone through as she backed her insights with both quantitative and qualitative data, leaving me feeling confident and inspired to drive meaningful conversations across our business and community. Equity has become my new favourite word, and I’m eager to put these valuable lessons into action!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the pleasure of inviting Jo Morgan from Engendering Change to speak at the Women's Health Conference, and her talk on the failures in sex education for girls was incredibly powerful. Jo highlighted critical gaps in the current system and shared valuable insights on how these shortcomings impact young people's understanding of their bodies and well-being. Her delivery was engaging, compassionate, and deeply informative. Jo's passion for improving education around sexual and reproductive health was evident, and her expertise left a lasting impression. I highly recommend Jo for anyone looking to understand and improve this important area of education.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely loved the training, so many things to think about and take with us - especially being hype women (which our team already are!!!) but learning the importance of speaking up and how far we all still have to go as a society. Joe is AMAZING so personable and so knowledgeable. THANK YOU!
