HR for Non-HR Specialists - Online course

From employment law and staff contracts to advertising jobs and interviewing, human resources can be a minefield to negotiate.

One day online course

Online courses take place via Zoom and include a one hour lunch break as well as brief refreshment breaks.

With their dedicated HR departments, bigger charities are lucky. But what happens if, like many smaller organisations, staff who aren’t specialists have to handle HR?

This course will help you explore the basics – including contracts, equality issues and disciplinary procedures – so you can feel confident handling HR issues in your organisation.

Who should sign up?

What will I get out of it?

  • Carry out essential HR responsibilities within the legal framework.
  • Choose the right employment contracts to use.
  • Recognise equality issues related to HR.
  • Follow the process for a fair dismissal.

 What will it cover?

  • The purpose of HR in your organisation
  • The legal framework
  • Contracts of employment – different types, who gets one, when and what they contain
  • Key equality issues in recruitment and employment
  • Outline of a fair dismissal
