On the day there will be a focus on how to create an effective learning environment, we will also hear how the business community can support the alignment of post -16 training to business needs via the Local Skills Improvement Plans and will also provide an essential employment law update detailing the changes in the recently introduced Employment Rights Bill.
Overview
AGENDA
- Introduction to the Employment Rights Act – Philip Peatson, Senior Associate, Precept HR and Law Solutions

The government introduced the Employment Rights Bill last year and it has now received royal assent so will start to take effect over the coming months and years and represents the most significant reform to UK employment law in a generation and will have far-reaching implications for how you manage your workforce and employment relationships.

Understanding these changes is crucial for ensuring your organisation remains compliant while continuing to attract and retain talent in an evolving HR and employment law landscape.

During this session: We'll explore the key provisions of the Act, discuss what these changes mean in practice for your day-to-day operations, and outline the steps you need to take to prepare for implementation.

This is not just about compliance - it's about understanding how you can work within this new framework to maintain a fair, productive, and positive workplace for everyone. By the end of this training, you'll have a clear understanding of your responsibilities.

- Creating an Effective Learning Culture, Peritus Learning - Richard Gourlay

This session will focus on the challenges HR teams are facing, covering areas such as:

- Update on the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP) for Leicester and Leicestershire – Richard Blackmore, Director of Policy and Insight.

LSIPs are developed to give local businesses a direct voice in shaping the skills system, each plan identifies the most urgent skills gaps in a specific area and sets out a three-year roadmap for training providers to address the demand from business.
