If you already have a basic understanding of how to conduct effective internal investigations but you want more practice, this all-day workshop is for you.  We provide “hands-on” experience conducting an actual investigation and constructive feedback about your approach and strategies.  Prior participation in our “Conducting Effective Internal Investigations: The Basics” is recommended, but not required.  Attendees in this session will work in small groups to:

• Master the development of investigative workplans, including those for complex and extra-sensitive investigations
• Hone interview skills and techniques
• Learn how to reach appropriate and “defensible” factual conclusions
• Learn how to draft investigative reports and avoid the traps inherent in this process
• Receive constructive feedback from other attendees and the instructor

This is a unique opportunity for attendees to use hone investigative skills in a fun, challenging, and supportive environment.

There is a new mock investigation every year.

Due to California’s COVID-19 restrictions and our general concerns for your safety and health, we will offer this workshop as a webinar.  Don’t worry!  You won’t have time to be bored.  The workshop will be just as engaging, entertaining, and dynamic as possible. We promise.

Some employers want to offer separate EEO compliance sessions for non-supervisors.  We make that easy!

In this innovative EEO compliance session, we cover all of the requirements for staff under SB 1343, and related laws.  We address all of the key topics, including:

• The definitions of unlawful harassment, discrimination and retaliation
• The definition of “bullying,” and management’s responsibility for preventing it
• The differences between EEO laws and EEO policies
• How “out-of-work” conduct (including social media activities) may result in EEO liability
• The internal complaint process, including the duty to report, investigate and respond, and requiring employees to respect the process
• How to encourage “Upstanders” (instead of just bystanders) in your organization

Employees love this interactive and engaging program, which we update every year to cover the most important legal developments!  Register now!  Certificates provided upon completion.
