Deepening Your Impact, Part II:Considerations When Choosing Voices and How to Use Relatable Language 

The goal of this webinar is to teach creators of online courses how to choose voices that will reflect and resonate with their participants, as well as how to communicate in straightforward language. This webinar combines the approaches of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion alongside Health Literacy to teach a framework for intentional decision-making about languages and voices.

Learning objectives

After completing the workshop, participants will be able to:

• Make intentional choices for voiceover selection by identifying the dimensions of diversity relevant for a given training.
• Make intentional choices for voiceover roles by identifying potential assumptions and biases as well as characteristics of promising individuals.
• Use a health literacy framework to adapt course language for intended participants.
• Identify next steps for building a diverse network of people to record voiceovers.
