We are pleased to announce the release of our new 'Preparing for a hearing' module in our Online Learning Portal.
This module is for employees and employers planning to represent themselves at a Commission hearing. It is also a valuable training resource for new practitioners appearing before us.
The module covers:
- the hearing process
- procedural fairness
- preparing evidence, witness statements and submissions
- the role of the Commission Member and others at the hearing
- dress code and appropriate behaviour
- presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making clear submissions
- what to expect after a hearing.
The module is free to access and contains video case studies, animations, learning checks, templates and a downloadable Guide. Users who log in can also obtain a completion certificate.
The module is the second in our 'Preparing for' series, following the popular 'Preparing for an unfair dismissal conciliation' module released in 2023.
