Practical, bespoke programmes that prepare your managers for the Employment Rights Act 2025 and everyday HR decisions — from harassment prevention to fair, defensible documentation.
The Employment Rights Act 2025 is bringing the biggest changes to UK employment law in a generation, with key reforms landing on 1 October 2026, 30 October 2026 and 1 January 2027. Most of these changes are tested through the day-to-day decisions your managers make — not through policy documents.
Our HR, employment law and compliance programmes translate the legal detail into practical management skills: recognising risk early, holding fair conversations, handling sensitive disclosures, managing absence and adjustments correctly, and creating records that stand up to scrutiny.
Every programme combines current legal awareness with real skills practice — role play, case studies and decision frameworks your managers can use immediately, not generic legal theory.
These programmes are designed for organisations across all sectors — manufacturing, retail, professional services, healthcare, logistics, public sector and voluntary organisations — who want their managers to handle people decisions fairly, confidently and lawfully. Courses are available as standalone half-day or full-day programmes, or as part of a structured HR and compliance development pathway. Every programme is delivered in-house at your premises or virtually, designed specifically around your organisation's policies and procedures.
Most programmes below are available as a full-day or half-day in-house workshop, delivered at your premises or virtually. All content is tailored to your organisation's policies before delivery.

Employment law, official guidance and organisational agreements are continuing to develop through 2026 and 2027. Every programme in this cluster reflects the law and official guidance current on its delivery date.
This is practical management training, not legal advice, and does not authorise decisions beyond a manager's remit. Obtain Human Resources or specialist legal advice for individual cases, access, time off, disclosure, negotiation or industrial action.
Elevate Impact Training reviews relevant Acas, government and Equality and Human Rights Commission guidance on a monthly basis and updates the content of every programme in this cluster where appropriate.
Important: Managers should always work from their own organisation's current procedures and advice. Physical and digital access arrangements, information, notice, facilities and practical conditions should not be invented or refused locally where detailed rules, recognition arrangements or collective agreements apply.
