Seminar No: 08502-XNBB
CEU Credits: 1.2
Length: 2 days
Your next employment decision could harm your organization and your career!
This interactive and case-study-centered seminar combines a comprehensive overview of employee discrimination/EEO, the Family Medical Leave Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. You’ll have the opportunity to review actual cases from various district and U.S. circuit courts...deliberate, render and explain your own “verdict”...and analyze how the court came to its actual decision.
