For employers

Training your staff costs less than most employers assume.

Some of what a sponsor is expected to do, such as telling workers about their rights, is served by training that already exists and costs nothing.

What is available.

Links open on Acas, GOV.UK or the Home Office. All checked before this page was published, and re-checked before every deploy.

ResourceWho it suits
Acas online training (opens in a new tab)Free short courses on contracts, conduct, discrimination and managing people. The obvious start for a manager who has inherited HR alongside their real job.
Free courses for jobs (opens in a new tab)Fully funded level 3 qualifications for eligible adults, where a worker needs a recognised qualification rather than an afternoon of awareness.
National Careers Service (opens in a new tab)Free skills assessment and course finding for any adult, including your existing staff.
Modern slavery training resources (opens in a new tab)Home Office material on recognising and reporting exploitation. Relevant to any organisation using agency or subcontracted labour.
Working, jobs and pensions on GOV.UK (opens in a new tab)The plain-English index of employment rights. Link it in a rights briefing rather than paraphrasing it yourself.

How it connects to the record.

Training somebody and recording that you did are two separate acts. Stamped HR does the second.

  1. 01

    Issue the briefing, link the training

    The employment rights briefing you already owe goes out with the links attached.

  2. 02

    The worker confirms receipt

    One tap. What is stored is the person, the moment, and a fingerprint of exactly what they were shown.

  3. 03

    Sessions become evidence

    Run a session, record attendance, and each attendee confirms. The evidence the guidance describes, produced as a by-product.

Questions
Is any of this actually free?
The ones listed here are, for eligible people. Acas online training is free to anyone. The funded qualifications have eligibility rules about age, prior qualifications and sometimes income, so check before promising a member of staff a place.
Does training count as compliance evidence?
Telling sponsored workers about their employment rights is a sponsor duty in its own right, and evidence of training or awareness sessions is one of the ways the guidance says you can show it. Training somebody and recording that you did are still two separate acts.
Can Stamped HR issue these to staff?
It can issue the briefing, record who confirmed it and when, and hold the link alongside. It does not host the courses themselves, and it does not pretend to certify anybody.
