Employment law in Ireland training course

Specialist guidance on complying with complex employment law

Employment law training is important because employment law is always changing

Compliance with employment law isn’t just an optional commitment; it should be considered a must. However, when the legal landscape keeps changing, ongoing compliance can take a lot of time, attention and resources to master.

This employment law course aims to upskill learners in the area of employment legislation, understand why employment law is important, and gain knowledge on the key pieces of legislation you need to be compliant with, and how to apply it back to your day to day role.
