Business training
Our bespoke training courses are designed to satisfy our clients’ individual needs. Our training can be tailored for directors, line-managers, HR personnel or the workforce more generally. We can deliver whatever training you require, either on or off-site. Many of our employment lawyers are in demand to speak at outside events run by external organisations and our whole team is experienced in delivering training at our own seminars and mock tribunals.
Did you know that an employer can be held liable for the actions of their employees? By advising companies on discrimination claims and representing them at tribunals, we have first-hand experience of exactly where the dangers for employers lie. Targeted training for your workforce can not only help avoid liability in the first place, but can provide a good defence if a claim does arise.
Shoosmiths’ business training combines credibility and value. Our courses are highly interactivity involving lots of practical examples, case studies, quizzes – and prizes! We actively encourage delegates to ask questions and test out their knowledge and understanding, the surest route to learning.
Don’t just take our word for it – here’s what our clients say:
“Shoosmiths’ approach was practical, delivered at the right level, and riveting: we know this course is going to save us cost on non-compliance.”
“What I liked was the interactive approach of the Shoosmiths’ courses and the way they have done their homework on our industry – it really kept our delegates on their toes.”
Here’s a flavour of the sort of courses we can run for you:
- Essential employment law: An introduction to the basics of employing people
- Employment law updates: Keeping you up to date with the latest legislation and cases and what it means for your business
- TUPE: What is it? When will it apply? What are employers required to do?
- Mock tribunals: The closest you would hope to get to a tribunal! See how a “real” case would be dealt with by a tribunal, watch our advocates in action and learn from best practice
- Managing absence: An intermediate course for those who regularly have to deal with this issue
