Legal Awareness for Regulators
It was great to have some of the learning tailored to our own work area, provided excellent context. The summary of the courts aspect was very helpful, and the case studies worked well - good to hear different perspectives

This course aims to give those working in or with regulatory bodies the skills to navigate the legal and policy frameworks within which they operate, and to acquire a working understanding of the institutions and processes of the legal system and government. Mapping the UK legal system and navigating carefully selected examples of regulatory legislation builds on existing knowledge for those new to their roles in the organisation, and also acts as a refresher for those seeking to reinforce their day to day understanding of where they fit into the regulatory landscape. It is for those working with statutory regulators and other public authorities that set standards and exercise controls, whether as policy-makers, case workers or operational advisers. For those who do not have a formal legal qualification, navigating the law can be challenging.
It will begin by mapping the UK legal system, to contextualise and consolidate participants’ prior knowledge and then use a shared understanding of other regulatory models and organisations to help inform their roles from a regulator’s perspective.
At the Civil Service College, we tailor our courses to each attendee’s role and organisation, ensuring that each participant gets the most out of the training. Our courses and trainers are continuously updated and evaluated to ensure that we are always delivering the best service possible.
Participants with no formal legal qualification, from organisations with regulatory and enforcement functions or those working with regulatory bodies.
Participants will appreciate their role in the UK legal system, how legislation is made, navigating relevant UK and international/EU standards where relevant, and how decisions are made. Finally, this course ensures that participants have a sufficient understanding of a glossary of core legal terms and concepts to be able to liaise with lawyers effectively and efficiently, recognising what effective legislative compliance looks like.
