Graduate Certificate in Employment Law and Practice
The Graduate Certificate in Employment Law and Practice is a specialist course for law and non-law professionals that seeks to develop subject expertise and practical skills in the field of labour law. The course is intended to educate professionals in the general area of employment law as well as specialist themes, including workplace culture and work health and safety.
As a professional working in, or alongside, the area of employment law and/or practice (including HR managers and those working in industrial relations and employee relations), this course expands and deepens student knowledge of relevant law, policy and contemporary issues as well as their professional skills, particularly in relation to analysis, communication and collaboration. If students are aiming to extend their knowledge and skills, or move into the area of employment law as a specialist, in either employment law or management, this course provides a suite of subjects with a focus on real-world experiences and practices. Students learn from expert academics and practising specialists in a professional environment that blends intensive collaborative study and online discussion and reflection.
This course is offered through a combination of online and face to face delivery, and it is intended to educate professionals in the general area of employment law as well as specialist themes, including workplace culture and work health and safety. Professionals are likely to be those who wish to expand or deepen their knowledge and skills in the area, as specialists in either employment law or management.
Students have the opportunity to network with educators, practitioners and colleagues in subjects that are timetabled to suit their professional life. The course offers flexibility for students to study part-time or full-time in a dynamic and supportive environment.
