Overview

Spread into 10 exciting and diverse modules, the Employment Law course will give students a solid grounding in employment law. You will learn how to develop a happy and willing workforce, adhere to essential laws and avoid Tribunal. You will also study employment terms and contracts, grievance and disciplinary procedures, redundancy management, and much more.

Description

An exciting new addition to our Business Professional series of courses, the Employment Law course offers a rich insight into the fascinating world of employment law.

The administration and management of any business is completely dependent on its people, and the way they are recruited, directed, compensated and eventually released. Ethical and proper practice is enshrined in law, governed by legislation and administered by recognised ‘best practice’. If employers deviate from ‘best practice’, they may face an Employment Tribunal, which may enforce payment of thousands of pounds of compensation. Thus, employment law is a critically important aspect of business.

Whether you’re already working in the industry or seeking a new challenge, this course will equip you with the essential knowledge and core competencies expected from an effective Human Resources or Personnel Manager. By the time you’ve completed the course, you will be able to show potential employers that you have the skills and insight required to treat employees fairly, protect their business from legal challenges and ultimately- save them a potential fortune. After all- some tribunal claims are uncapped!

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
