    What do you learn?

    The online “Remote leadership” learning programme has a modular structure and provides tools that can be used to stay in touch with your team and support and motivate them from a distance.

    It is a supportive programme aimed at achieving behavioural change.

    The online learning programme, which consists of six steps, looks like this:

    2. Preparation for the live session

    What does the law say?

    Organisations that had already drafted a working from home policy before 1 January 2021 do not need to take any action. All other organisations for which working from home is possible are now obliged to develop and implement a working from home policy.
    The aim of the working from home policy is to both monitor productivity and guarantee the well-being of employees. For example, agreements must be made about:

    • The equipment required for teleworking

    • Working hours and schedules

    • Duties and performance standards

    • Details about where employees can go in case of problems

    More information can be found in CLA 85 and in the Workable and Flexible Work Act.

    Price

    The prices depends on how you follow the training. 

    1 year access to the training and all content is included in the price.
