How many difficult conversations have you put off until Friday?
Our free people management course is built around exactly those moments. Handling a grievance. Deciding who gets the pay rise when the budget stretches to one person. Telling a good worker their attitude is the problem. And get it wrong? The whole thing can end up in front of a judge. Ministry of Justice figures put tribunal claims at around 50,000 a year from individuals alone. Tribunals clear barely half that. Cases sit open for months.
Culture, evidence, employment law, staff planning, reward and leadership all feature. None of it assumes you have managed anybody before.

Chartered HR status comes from separate awarding bodies. Our course builds the knowledge underneath roles like:
Our free course covers the people side of management properly. You will study workplace culture, evidence, professional behaviour and employment relationships.
