Here's what your peer's said about the event last year:
"It was an excellent day, with very content rich presentations and speakers. The easiest thing in the world for events such as these is to be tedious and boring, but the speakers are all very well briefed, and capable of holding a room’s attention. The notes are also excellent for reviewing as at times, the amount of information coming flying at you can all be a bit too intense to digest at the time, so the notes are excellent for re-enforcing the knowledge and learning outcomes of the day itself."
Will Davis, HR Generalist, VWR International Ltd
"I regularly attend the Legal-Island Annual Review of Employment Law the sessions are always topical and relevant and usually give great tips for day to day HR, the information pack serves as an excellent reference back in the workplace."
Lorraine Kirk, HR Manager, Bellurgan Precision Engineering Ltd
"This is always an excellent event and I consider a must for anyone having to address employment issues. There were excellent speakers who had done a considerable amount of work in advance to give us excellent resource guides. Excellent organisation as usual. Up to the usual high standards."
Declan Naughton, HR Consultant, Declan Naughton Organisation Solutions
"Attended in previous years and have always found the information to be invaluable. The folder, in particular, is a very useful 'go-to tool' after the event."
