Welcome! LPEN has a new look. Your account and your courses have not changed.
Courses are listed first, then pages, then news.
HR training built to the standard LPEN uses for lawyers and licensed practitioners, taught by the employment and immigration lawyers who argue these issues for a living. Live sessions, recordings, and a certificate every time.
Most HR training explains the framework. This explains what to do on Tuesday, when the complaint is already on your desk, the employee has a lawyer, and whatever you decide will be read back to you later. Every course is taught by someone who handles these matters professionally.
Conduct issues, performance management, grievances, and the conversations nobody wants to have.
Complaints, harassment allegations, and findings that have to hold up if they are challenged.
Mental health absences, return to work, the duty to accommodate, and where payroll fits in.
Screening, interviewing and selection, taken to the point where the decision is defensible.
Recruitment, retention, work permits, and the compliance obligations that follow the hire.
Translating legal risk into decisions the executive team can actually act on.
Eight courses across the year, each one a self-contained session on a single problem. 4 have already run, so those recordings and materials are in your account the moment you buy. The other 4 are still live.

We build sessions for HR departments, leadership teams and cross-functional groups around the issues that particular organisation is actually dealing with. Same instructors, same standard, scoped to your policies and your sector.
A short conversation is usually enough to say whether we are the right fit and what it would cost.

Continuing professional development requirements differ from one professional body to the next. Check with yours about what it requires and how it wants hours reported, and ask us if you need anything the certificate does not already carry.

If you are a lawyer or a paralegal. LPEN’s main programme is built for licensed practitioners and several of these HR courses are taught by the same instructors. The immigration and paralegal catalogues are separate.
LPEN has spent years building courses for people whose regulator reads their work. The HR programme uses the same construction: work through real scenarios, set out what the law requires, then show the decision being made.
Courses work through the kinds of situations HR professionals actually face, rather than staying at the level of the framework.
The obligations that apply, explained by someone who argues them, with the parts that are genuinely unsettled named as unsettled.
What to do, why that and not the alternative, and what the file has to show if the decision is challenged later.
Every course issues a certificate naming the course and the teaching hours, which is the record most bodies ask for. Whether those hours count, and how they are reported, is set by your own professional body, and requirements differ from one to the next. Check with yours rather than taking a blanket answer from us.
If your body needs something the certificate does not carry, email us and we will tell you whether we can supply it.
Both. A course whose session has already run is available as a recording, and it is in your account as soon as you buy it. A course still to come you can attend live and ask questions in the session.
The recording is included either way, so booking a live session costs you nothing if you cannot make the day.
It is issued once the recording is in your account and the course is marked complete, and it downloads from My Courses. It names the course and the teaching hours.

A course that has not happened yet can be cancelled within three days of purchase for a full refund, less the payment processing fees. Once a course has run and the recording and materials are in your account, it cannot be refunded.
Recordings and materials stay in your account. Access windows are set per course and per pass, and the course page states the window for that course.
If you are buying for a specific reporting period and the window matters, ask us before you buy rather than after.
