Learn Payroll Launches Specialist Courses To Meet The Challenges Of Credit Crunch.

Payroll and HR professionals can now develop a better understanding of how best to handle issues emerging from the current financial climate through five new specialist courses being offered by learnPAYROLL, formerly HRD & Payroll Solutions.

As a direct response to demand for training in areas that have been brought to light thanks to the credit crunch, learnPAYROLL is currently offering specialist workshops on relevant topics such as how to deal with termination and redundancy payments and how to determine employment status.

All specialist courses are one or half day face-to-face workshops and are offered in over 20 different locations across the UK, including London, Bristol and Manchester. The courses can also be run in-house, potentially saving money and covering topics such as:

• Understanding Pension Schemes and NI Now and the Future 
• Developing and Implementing Salary Sacrifice & Flexible Benefits – Policies & Procedure
• Payroll for HR and Senior Managers
• Termination & Redundancy Payments
• Determining Employment Status

Ken Gurr, payroll education director of The Learn Centre, said: “At learnPAYROLL, we recognise that investing in the training and education of an organisation’s payroll and HR departments has become increasingly important during this economically turbulent time.

“Our five specialist courses have been designed to accommodate the needs of payroll and HR departments by focusing on legislation and issues that are topically significant, especially during the credit crunch.

“An example of this is our workshop on termination & redundancy payments, which analyses the complexities of legislation such as the Income Tax Earnings and Pensions Act of 2003. This specialist course provides the relevant skills and knowledge that is absolutely vital in avoiding costly mistakes when dealing with termination and redundancy payments.”

If you have questions relating to any area of payroll, please feel free to call the learnPAYROLL hotline on 01798 861111.

The five new specialist workshops which are available now are designed to complement learnPAYROLL’s already comprehensive menu of payroll courses, online payroll training and payroll qualifications.
