FAQ
Here are some of the common questions we get asked about our HR for Managers training course:
Who delivers your HR for Managers training courses?
Our HR for Managers courses are delivered by our friendly and highly experienced trainers. We live and breathe what we talk about in these sessions as we use most of the tools and techniques ourselves on a daily basis and bring this real-world experience into the session and the examples that we use.
Is it my responsibility to deal with HR issues?
It's becoming increasingly common that dealing with HR policy and process sits with the management team in the business and the HR team is there to act in a support and advice capacity. If this is the case in your business, knowing how to manage HR issues and understanding policy and processes will be incredibly important.
Does the course look at HR case law?
A little. The course focuses more on the practical skills required to manage HR issues and not on understanding the law. This is where your HR team can provide the right guidance and advice.
Can you use our HR policies and processes?
If you are attending our scheduled open course, you are more than welcome to have these with you during the course to see how the skills and approaches will fit into your individual policies and processes. If we deliver this course in-house for you, we will chat with you about specific policies and processes to use in the course.
Do you have any HR for Managers articles I can read?
Yes. We have lots of articles about HR for Managers in the performance management section of our blog.

Great session to start to think about HR and your role
Would recommend to those wanting some HR awareness training. I particularly liked the small groups as often on online training there is too many participants but the session was well delivered. Trainer was great at group facilitation.
