Who will benefit
Whether you have just started in your role as a management accountant or you have a number of years of experience then this event will be of benefit to you. This event will benefit anyone who needs, or may need to give evidence in a court or tribunal, as part of their job description.
This one day event will focus on the skills and techniques required to effectively prepare and give evidence on oath and under pressure of cross examination confidently.
Litigation is increasing and management accountants now have every likelihood of having to give evidence in cases such as:
- employment
- health and safety
- fraud
- money laundering
- bribery (following the new Bribery Act)
- disciplinary actions
- company law and issues concerning copyright, patents etc.
