Background Screening and the Fair Credit Reporting Act
A reliable and effective workforce must be free from the damaging effects of ill-suited workers and inspire optimal productivity. For this to be accomplished, the hiring process must go beyond resumes, interviews, and intuition, and include legal inquiries into each candidate's background. This course explains how to conduct proper background investigations and reference checks, why they are beneficial, what consequences can result from not performing them, and what risks an enterprise faces when gathering information without a full understanding of the laws that govern the rights of the employee and the obligations of the employer.

Disciplining and Terminating Employees: How to Reduce the Damage
Discipline that is too little or too late permits the worst employees to set the standard for workplace conduct and undermine the productivity of everyone. On the other hand, discipline that is too rash contributes to employee distrust and morale problems that can damage productivity, attendance, and employee commitment. This course provides suggestions on how to effectively discipline or terminate an employee with minimal legal risks to the organization and minor damages to employee confidence and performance.

Managing Diversity in the Workplace
A diverse labor force can provide many benefits, but it is also important to understand the unique challenges that diversification brings. After learning about the workplace principles and practices that generate the best results, a supervisor will be better equipped to manage diversity in the workplace. This course is a comprehensive introduction to the realities of the diverse 21st Century workforce. It is intended to inform managers and supervisors of the responsibilities an organization has to the employee and acquaint them with management strategies that yield the most productive results.

Preventing and Managing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace: A Guide for Managers and Supervisors
Sexual harassment is a serious matter. Unfortunately, many people still do not understand exactly what it is. They do not always recognize sexual harassment in its more subtle form – or know what to do about it when they do see it. This course will help managers and supervisors identify inappropriate behaviors and know the proper actions to take when sexual harassment occurs in the workplace.

Understanding the Americans with Disabilities Act
Congress enacted the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to help ensure that individuals with physical and/or mental disabilities received equal employment opportunities. Title I of the act prohibits employers from discriminating against disabled applicants or employees who are otherwise qualified to perform their jobs. This course discusses how the Americans With Disabilities Act works, who is qualified under the act provisions, how to use effective management techniques to avoid violations, and how other laws may affect application of this act.

Violence in the Workplace: Reducing Occurrences and Managing the Aftermath
Workplace violence is becoming more and more common these days – disgruntled employees going on shooting sprees, estranged spouses attacking or killing one another, people with a grudge against an organization lashing out… Incidents like these cannot always be predicted, and are not 100% preventable. However, there are ways to significantly reduce acts of violence. This course provides general information about violence in the workplace, outlines strategies for helping prevent violence, and recommends procedures to follow when a violent incident does occur.
