and change
The news of redundancy marks
significant change and a turning point in many people’s

of notice, during which the employee continues in post. Many

personal circumstances will naturally affect individual response
to the news. Whatever the initial reaction and the circumstances,
there are many issues to be addressed and this course offers
a supportive environment and a practical approach to handling
redundancy and the period of transition between one job and
the next.
