Course Description
Litigants on both sides of an employment case may gain a strategic advantage through the use of an employment practices expert. These experts can provide an opinion on employment policies and practices such as hiring, training, supervision, and the accepted practices in the relevant area. Juries can also benefit from the expertise of a human resources practitioner’s explanation of generally accepted practices in the workplace. This program will dissect the role and qualifications of such an expert in employment litigation, explore the value they bring to a case, and discuss a number of admissibility trends from cases.Length: 58min
