About The Event

Arbitration is where workplace decisions are tested. Effective Arbitration: Practical Tools for Labour Disputes equips HR, ER, line managers and representatives with the procedural and practical skills to navigate arbitration confidently and present a persuasive case.


This training provides a structured walkthrough of the arbitration process, focusing on the CCMA procedure, the correct conduct of proceedings, and the practical application of the CCMA Rules. A dedicated module on the law of evidence, viewed through the lens of the arbitrator, helps delegates understand what evidence carries weight, how to challenge evidence effectively, and how commissioners assess credibility and relevance in real disputes. The programme is highly practical and scenario-based so delegates leave ready to represent a party (or themselves) with clarity and control.


Key modules include: dispute resolution under the LRA, theoretical precedent, step-by-step CCMA procedure, law of evidence in arbitration, CCMA Rules analysis, and misconduct arbitration pitfalls.
