How to specialise in employment law

Hi there,

First post.

I have a HR Generalist background over the last eight years and have just completed my Level 5 CIPD diploma. I really enjoyed the Employment Law module and would like to specialise in this area of HR.

Can anyone advise me what job titles incorporates employment law and what further qualifications I may require to specialise in this area?

Any help or advise apperciated.

Thanks

Anna

    Hi David, would you be able to let me know what was the title of the course that you have completed? The link is not working anymore and I would be interested to get more information. Thank you

    Hi Veronika and welcome here!

    It was I think 'Employment Law in Practice' LLM by distance learning Northumbria Uni Law School but I can no longer find it listed online either.

    Might be worth contacting the Law School to check whether or not it's still running.

    Assuming not, that's I'm sure a great shame as it proved a most useful course indeed for me at least.

    All Best with it!
  • Can I suggest https://www.elaweb.org.uk/ The Employment Lawyers Association
    Also I find Daniel's blog and webinar series helpful www.danielbarnett.co.uk/.../

    ISTR that De Montfort Uni Leicester used to promulgate an LLM employment law by distance learning but last time I looked the fees required by them for it seemed pretty extortionate to me cf others at the time.
  • Thanks for explanation.

    I agree with Davis and would recommend Selwyn's: well written and accessible. I completed an LLM at RGU in Aberdeen but a number of others are available.

    Hi Veronika,
    I enrolled on the LLM Employment Law distance learning through DeMontfort in September and am really enjoying the course. Please feel free to message if you have questions.
