Increase Your Industrial Relations Knowledge And Earn A Badge Too!
In days gone by, if you did an industrial relations training ‘course’ you got a ‘certificate of participation’ for your trouble, and that was it.
If you wanted to do a refresher or update your skills, you had to pay for the course all over again.
And there was no way to verify that the course you were about to enroll in was actually worth it.
With all this in mind, IR Simplified has created a new range of industrial relations training courses.
Our courses:
Give you a lifetime education.
Take the course as many times as you want, and as often as you want. In fact, we encourage you to do it at least once a year.
Shareable and verifiable badges.
On completion of the course, you will be issued with an “Open Badge” which you can share on social media or your own website. The badge will contain verifiable information that the badge is issued to you via Credly.com, the criteria for assessment, an issue and expiry date.
Constantly updated.
Regardless of the course you enroll in, you can be assured that it will contain current and relevant information. Courses will be revised at a minimum of twice a year.
