Have you ever wondered what happens at an employment tribunal, how the process works and what key elements of the case will be taken into account? Appearing before a tribunal can be very daunting whether you attend as a witness or are representing your company.
 
This interactive live ‘mock’ tribunal will give you a realistic understanding of the procedure so you know what to expect on the day. The tribunal hearing will be fully explained by our highly experienced advocates and delegates will have the opportunity to ask questions and even vote on who should win.   This is the closest you can get to taking part in a tribunal hearing without attending the real thing.
