I have recently taken on the roll of Payroll/Personnel Officer. I'm looking for the best course to provide me with knowledge of employment law possibly the CIPD course. I've been told there is a similar course. Does anyone know of such a course within the South West or other courses that I may find beneficial for my role.

A recommendation
The CIPD does course as do some law companies. I went of some courses (relatively inexpensive too) with Eversheds and they were first class.

As Wayne has already said Eversheds are extremely helpful with this type of training, my contact there is Ruth Renton 0207 919 4876.

As someone who has been undertaking my own development in that area I have found there are many local providers that can provider a more cost efficient service than the CIPD which is very expensive. It probably depends if you want the qudos that is associated with their qualification.
Conatct your local Business Link who not only will provide you with free support, but also tell you where local courses are available.
