Employment law training for HR, one program per problem
Each program works through one kind of problem HR handles. A complaint to investigate, a manager's question about a firing, a union drive or a people decision for the business: pick the one closest to your week.
Taught on realistic cases, with HR peers from other employers. Practicing employment attorneys teach the law programs; senior HR consultants teach HR Management.

Taught by the attorneys employers call when these decisions go wrong.
They defend employers in the cases HR is trying to avoid, so they teach what actually holds up, not just what the law says.
HR Management is the exception: senior HR consultants teach it.
“Finding attorneys who can teach is a rarity. I found the information current and relevant.”
IAML has trained 80,000+ HR professionals since 1979, with practicing attorneys, not professional trainers.

Are these programs live?
Yes. Each program meets live on Zoom for 4 half-days. The dates set so far run Tuesday to Friday, 11:00 AM to 2:45 PM Eastern (10:00 AM to 1:45 PM Central). Miss a half-day? You get the on-demand version of that part. Programs with a recording are also available on demand at the same price.
Which program should I start with?
Start with HR Law Fundamentals for the employment law behind everyday HR decisions. Choose Workplace Investigations for a complaint you have to investigate, Discrimination Prevention and Defense for harassment, retaliation and accommodation questions, Labor Law for union and bargaining issues, and HR Management for people decisions at the leadership level. The Program Finder can also suggest one.
Do the programs give SHRM or HRCI credits?
Every program gives a certificate of completion. It is a record that you completed the program, not a certification. Workplace Investigations, Feb. 23 to 26, 2027, also gives 13 SHRM and HRCI recertification credits. No credit count is approved yet for the other live dates, so we do not list one. On demand, every program carries 13 SHRM and HRCI recertification credits under its own approval.
What does it cost, and can my company pay by invoice?
Tuition is $1,575 a seat for Workplace Investigations and HR Management, and $1,375 for the other three programs. Bring a colleague and both seats drop to $1,325 ($1,150 on the $1,375 programs). Your company can pay by card, invoice or purchase order.
What if I can't make the dates?
Register now and transfer to a later date any time, or get a full refund if you cancel up to 14 days before the program starts. You can also tell us which month works, and we email you when a date in that month opens.
Can you train our managers or a whole team?
Yes. In-house training is built for your group and taught by a practicing employment attorney, live online or at your location: $6,500 a full day or $4,500 a half day, customization included. Most teams start within 3 to 4 weeks of saying yes.
