Part of our Higher Education Team's spring webinar series
In this webinar, Claire Leonard, Partner at Bevan Brittan, and Katie Fudakowski, Barrister at Old Square Chambers, provided an overview of the proposed changes and consider the implications for Higher Education providers. They discussed practical tips for navigating the new legal framework including when independent investigations may be appropriate, how investigative processes are likely to be scrutinised under the new framework, and what this means for universities seeking to demonstrate compliance.
This was the second event in our spring series of higher education webinars.
