New for 2025 - The Intersection of AI and DEI






Black Labor at the Dawn of New Eras


Love it or hate it, AI is here. Book a 1-hour Interactive Learning Event in celebration of Black History Month to bring your teams together to consider technological leaps through the ages, the Black technologists at the forefront of those changes and to look into the future to discuss the potential impacts of AI on people, the environment, careers and industries. An inclusive conversation touching on technical topics, accessible to general audiences as we explore what changes AI may bring and how to best prepare for them.

Gameshow-style Event

Movies, Music, Media!


This gameshow-style event runs for an hour and hosts up to 80 participants! A little bit of gameshow and a little bit of group chat, it brings your teams together socially to get to know each other and reminisce about their fave shows and music of the 80's, 90's and 2000's!



What's an Interactive Learning Event?


They're part research, part puzzle, part learning and part fun! In partnership with Turner Consulting Group in Canada and The Equity Equation in the United States, HELM Life is proud to be helping teams learn together.





Run a MicroLearning Word Search Challenge to Celebrate Black History Month's theme of African Americans and the Arts!!


Sometimes you're looking to get people together to celebrate. But sometimes you'd like to run something a little more low-key - where people can play and learn on their own - that's what MicroLearning Challenges are for!

MicroLearning Series

3-Week MicroLearning Series

Invite Colleagues to an Infosession!

Bring a few colleagues or friends and drop into an infosession! They're a great way to play through a demo game, learn a bit about how our events work, and to ask some questions for 20-30 minutes.

Here's why teams choose HELM Life programming:


We work with Amazing Hosts!
Although HELM Life can host up to 200 participants per event - all of the fun learning is done in breakout rooms of 6-8. Each group is hosted by one of our talented facilitators, to support teams in their learning and to make sure that everyone has a great time!
Easy to Organize
All HELM Life Learning Events fit within a 1-hour calendar block. They're led by our event emcees and are easy to plan, well-researched and fun to do - organizers simply need to get teams to their link, and we'll take over from there! We'll also set you up with: share images, a blurb to share, a calendar invite and a registration page to share with your teams!
Donation Included
All HELM Life Learning Events include a donation to an organization working to address the systemic inequalities we'll be learning about and working towards change supporting the community.
