Introduction to Contracts Of Employment Certificate

Introduction to Contracts Of Employment Certificate Course

A contract of employment represents a fundamental agreement between an employer and worker. Therefore, it needs to be clear, fair and comprehensive. To avoid misunderstandings, you also need to know how to propose and implement changes. Although contracts do not always have to be written down, it is best practice to clarify the terms and conditions on paper.

This course focuses on what should be included in a written contract, when it should be drawn up and what happens if one or both parties break its terms.

You Will Learn:

  • How a contract of employment should be drawn up, why verbal contracts are not considered best practice and when they should be ready to sign
  • How a worker’s status determines the content of a contract, including their rights to benefits
  • The details an employer must report to HMRC and how the PAYE system works
  • What happens if either party breaches the terms and conditions of an employment contract

Benefits of Taking This Course

  • If you are responsible for drawing up contracts of employment, this course will help ensure that the documents you produce comply with legal requirements
  • If you are a worker, this course will help you evaluate your contract of employment to ensure that it is fair
  • By developing your understanding of the laws underpinning contracts, you are also in a position to help a colleague who believes they are being treated unfairly
  • If you are responsible for maintaining business accounts, this course will help you decide when to report relevant information to HMRC

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 3 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Once you have completed all 3 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 3 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

The pass mark for the test is 70%.

If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

You can either use your Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Solo cards or PayPal account to pay for the online course. Our site uses the latest SSL encryption to ensure your safety. All payments are handled securely by PayPal.

You can begin the course immediately after your payment has been received. You will create your login details during the checkout process. We will also send you an email confirming your login details.

We estimate that the course will take about 1 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

This course is very comprehensive. It is packed full of very helpful information to aid the Teaching assistant to use his or her skills and knowledge to the full.

If this course is being taken by those who have no knowledge of being a TA, then in my honest opinion they would certainly know about the role when they finish.

I do like the online tests at the end. It does make you think and definitely reinforces what material has just been read. It is also an incentive when seeing a 'grade' to realise how much has been taken in thus encouraging enthusiasm to proceed to the next module.

In all I would say that this course is certainly worth doing, I'm enjoying it and what it has to offer.

The course was very useful. It covers everything you need starting from the introduction to the comments. Everything was explained in a way to understand easily each one module of it. I really liked the pivot table module.

It is so helpful, don’t know how I lived until now without it at work. It is just amazing. I am so glad that I started the course and I am proud of myself that I did it in a such a short time.

Thank you for this. Can’t wait to start the next one – intermediate level! Hopefully I will pass it. And who knows – maybe after that I will pass the advanced one.

Eleonora Kanazirova

Very well organised via Modules. It was extremely helpful. I learned a lot of new and interesting things.
I especially liked those modules with 'homework' at the end. It might be better if every module has some extra tasks for practice.

Darina Kostadinova

I started this course not too long ago but I am already learning so much! The course content is extremely interesting and informative!

I get excited thinking about what is going to be in each module! I would recommend this course to everybody with a passion for makeup without hesitation! I love the convenience of being able to do this course wherever I am.

Also, the fact that there is no time limit for the course is a plus, this means I can take my time and take notes as I go, without feeling rushed to complete each module fast.

I passed my admin course. It was very clear, so I found it so easy to understand and take in all the information. Thank you

I undertook the Data Protection Certificate course in May 2017. I found the course to have a very in depth amount of detail on Data Protection and the law and legislation around it. It also went into detail on the new Data Protection Act coming in 2018.

I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a course with value for money and also to bulk up their knowledge and perhaps perusing a career in IT or security. The course is audited and comes with a certificate on completion which you are able to print yourself or have one sent out to you for a small fee.
