Age Regulations explained free at newly redesigned online learning resource

'What every employer should know about the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006' has been specially authored by site developer Echelon Publishing to celebrate the six year-old site’s makeover. It also helps UK businesses understand better their liabilities in respect of what is being regarded as the most significant piece of employment legislation of the past 30 years.

This comprehensive business and management skills resource of some 2,000+ modules offers job-based solutions designed to meet a wide range of different learning styles: 300 quickfire solutions to everyday business problems; 650 self-development solutions to help build a skill; 200 best practice essays/interviews with top business thinkers; 100 diagnostic and audit solutions to check out current performance; 250 digest articles on business giants and management books; and 600 training solutions to help build skills in others. There are free examples on the site of modules matching each of these learning styles.
It also provides toolkits covering board development, career development and service development.

Latest (September 2006) revisions to the site bring greater ease and speed of use, with learning content available from any PC for just-in-time download, delivered on-screen or over the printer in bite-size format.

Individuals can purchase solutions via secure credit card transaction while teams can set up a corporate account, enabling members to download solutions via a password.

Alternatively organisations can purchase an annual licence for a custom-built site housing their own learning material, knowledge and information republished in html with selected content from www.learningmatters.com . It provides the perfect means of ensuring every employee has global 24/7 access to tools which enable them to be more effective in their jobs.
