Coleg Glan Hafren

Anna Denton-Jones attended Coleg Glan Hafren on Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th November to take two classes of students undertaking the CPP course, (the Certificate in Personnel Practice which will lead to accreditation with the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development). These sessions were organised by Julie Joyce their tutor and supported by Anna in her capacity as Committee member for the Cardiff Branch of the CIPD. After outling how the different areas of employment law overlap Anna discussed a number of absence related problems with the students, seeking to get them to thinking as to how they would deal with these scenario's if they were faced with them in the workplace.

The students enjoyed being able to talk to Anna about some of the real cases that she is working on.

Monday 10th November

Anna Denton-Jones attended Cardiff University to meet with one of the MBA students. She set these students a challenging scenario based on a real case she had dealt with to see what they would do. Anna was then able to compare with them what she actually did in the real case.

This session was organised by Rachel Williams their tutor who was trying to put their employment law studies in context in the real world.
