HR Essentials for Managers – Online Workshops
Tuesday 30th September 2025
10am – 1:30pm
Online, Teams
Compliance with the law is a significant challenge for anyone tasked with the responsibility of managing people in your organisation. As a manager or supervisor, you need to be aware of how employment law protects employees. You also need to be aware of the practical management tools available to you to assist you.
What our previous attendees say:
“I found the training course very useful, thank you for inviting me onto it. Emma Fay was really engaging and she covered a lot of areas that I didn’t previously know much about. I found the employee/employer legal rights content extremely interesting and she gave us really helpful guidance on giving both positive and negative feedback to our colleagues. The course definitely made me think more about how to get the best out of our team and the impact that our words/actions as a manager can have.”
“I really enjoyed the session. Emma was very engaging and the slides and workbook were really useful. So well organised and her communication style was perfect. All aspects of the legalities were covered. Overall very happy with the course and the conduct of Emma”

- Online – hosted over MS Teams, this avoids the need for having to travel to a venue
- Two sessions – Session 1 and 2 will run on the same day but with a brief break in between to give you a good screen break and enable you to check on your emails / missed calls without missing any of the content
- Workbooks –Â These will be emailed to you in advance for printing or writing on electronically.
