Previous Participant's Views

“An excellent course for those wishing to enhance their knowledge of employment law practice and procedure. The course was delivered by excellent tutors and very experienced guest speakers. Highly recommended”.

Derek J Kane, Solicitor

 “I thoroughly enjoyed the six week Advanced Employment Law Short Course at the Institute of Professional Legal Studies convened by barristers Emma McIlveen and Ryan Cushley. It was an insightful and interesting course which covered many complex topics within employment law including discrimination, whistleblowing and equal pay claims. The course was delivered by several experts in the area including judges, barristers and solicitors. As a newly qualified solicitor I felt it built on my existing knowledge and gave me the confidence to practice in the area. I would recommend the course to all practitioners and HR consultants. “
