A popular outdoor apparel company is taking a unique approach to reward its customers when they educate themselves about issues such as diversity and inclusion.

The North Face has created an online course about racial inclusion and allyship. Some people who complete the free course, which is offered to anyone, have a chance at snagging a discount on The North Face products.

How To Take The North Face's Diversity Course

The Allyship in the Outdoors website directs customers to enter an email address to be invited to take the course. From there, the user is taken back the a website from The North Face to begin the session.

"At The North Face, we believe in the power of exploration," the user is told in the course's introduction. "As individuals, professionals and companies who share love for the outdoors and exploration, we also have a responsibility to support spaces where everyone feels like they belong."
