SUMMARY:Advanced Report Writing for Workplace Investigations
DESCRIPTION:Pre Requisite: This program is for HR professionals and other internal workplace investigators who have already completed the Workplace Investigations Training and Certificate Program or an equivalent.\nCompleting a workplace investigation is only half the job—how you document and communicate your findings is just as important. Investigation reports serve as critical decision-making tools for internal stakeholders and can face scrutiny from unions\, arbitrators\, and the courts. A poorly written report can weaken a case\, while a well-structured\, clear\, concise\, and legally sound report strengthens credibility and ensures transparency. This advanced workshop equips HR professionals and workplace investigators with the tools and insights needed to write effective\, well-organized\, and defensible investigation reports. Learn how to streamline the process\, assess credibility\, and craft compelling reports that tell a clear and structured story. \nSpeaker: Brian Gottheil \nDate: November 6\, 2025 \nTime: 9:00am – 2:30pm \nRegistration closes: November 5\, 2025 3:00pm \nFor more information: HRPA Advanced Report Writing \n
