A lawfully conducted investigation can potentially save millions of dollars in litigation costs and lost productivity. In addition a proper investigation can nip workplace problems in the bud; keeping businesses operating smoothly—and out of the courtroom. Oftentimes, the outcome of these cases turns on the quality of the investigation that has been conducted. Without the facts, decision-making is flawed and can expose the employer to significant liability. Over the course of two days, you will actively engage (through role playing) in detailed, “real time” investigations as the attorney-instructor guides you through the investigatory process, giving important pointers and recommendations throughout. Participants will learn how to handle complaints legally by gaining actual experience in interviewing witnesses and evaluating evidence.
The Certificate in HR Legal Challenges is conducted live in an instructor-led, virtual environment. Attendees participate in two, two-hour virtual sessions. Each registered participant will have access to extensive materials and real-world case studies, online discussion boards with direct access to faculty members and recorded sessions for a full year after completion of the program. This program features very highly-rated faculty member, Gavin S. Appleby from Littler Mendelson.
