Understanding Retail Product Consumer Law
This two day workshop will enable those in attendance to build on a new or existing knowledge base of Product and Consumer Law. We break down the jargon barriers and facilitate learning of UK law affecting businesses today. We do this by giving delegates a legal knowledge framework, enabling them to perform and work effectively within UK civil and criminal law. Delegates will experience the law from the retail and the enforcers perspective.
