Education & Training

Business has become fiercely competitive, with the internet and globalisation being two forces that have rendered almost every business vulnerable to greater competition and risk. Continuous learning is not just an asset; it's a necessity.

Understanding this, we at Featherstone & Associates have dedicated ourselves to offering premier education and training services for small businesses, designed to empower professionals and businesses to stay ahead of the curve.

Our educational programs aren't mere seminars; they're immersive, transformative experiences that instil practical knowledge, strategic thinking, and a proactive approach to the multifaceted challenges in the business world.

With years of tutoring experience under her belt, our Legal Practice Director, Roisin Featherstone, is well-positioned to deliver training to clients in a manner that accommodates their learning needs, to ensure the effectiveness of sessions.

Our Approach

Customised Training Programs

Recognising the diversity in professional needs and corporate goals, we specialise in developing customised training modules. Whether you're a café owner needing to keep abreast of the latest Fair Work regulations, a start-up honing entrepreneurial skills, or a multinational company educating teams on Australian advertising rules, our bespoke programs cater specifically to your objectives.

Legal and Regulatory Workshops

With the laws and regulations relating to Fair Work and industrial relations undergoing frequent updates and revisions, our legal and regulatory workshops are designed to keep you informed and compliant business owners. We simplify the jargon, offering clear, actionable insights and practical know-how on navigating this legal space.

Compliance and Ethics Education

Promoting a culture of integrity and adherence to the law, our programs in compliance and ethics are more than theoretical discourses. We engage participants in case studies, scenario analyses, and role-playing exercises, ingraining in them the principles and practices of corporate compliance and ethical conduct. These can be tailored to your particular business needs and sector, so the scenarios remain relevant to you and your staff.

Guest Lecture

Roisin Featherstone has previously presented on topics of Sports Law, specifically in the areas of doping and WADA investigations, as a guest lecturer at universities. Her unique background in law and science position her to provide insights into anti-doping cases, and the manner in which legal processes and scientific testing and investigations intersect. If you would like to speak to Roisin about being a guest lecturer, please contact us for availability and rates.
