Training that helps your business work smarter.

Acuity Academy gives businesses access to practical legal training designed to help teams understand the issues they deal with every day. From employment and HR matters to data protection, commercial contracts, compliance and risk management, the Academy supports organisations that want to build confidence, improve decision-making and reduce avoidable legal risk across the business.

For Acuity Counsel Service clients, Acuity Academy can be accessed as part of your wider subscription relationship. Your allocated hours can be used to purchase training courses, giving you a flexible way to invest in your people while continuing to manage your legal spend through one joined-up service.

Using your ACS hours to purchase courses

A key benefit of ACS is its flexibility. Your hours are not limited to one type of support. In addition to legal advice across Acuity’s practice areas, ACS clients can use their hours to access additional Acuity products and services, including Acuity Academy courses via e-learning, in-person or webinar.

This means training can be built into your existing legal support arrangement. Whether you want to upskill managers, support your HR team, improve contract awareness across your commercial teams or help employees understand their compliance responsibilities, Acuity Academy provides a practical route to learning without needing to set up a separate training arrangement.

Training support designed and delivered by legal experts

Acuity Academy offers ACS clients total flexibility. Designed by legal experts it enables you to select how the courses are delivered and ensures that your teams are fully informed. Whatever your training priorities, Acuity Academy can help translate legal knowledge into practical action.

Acuity Academy is designed to make legal knowledge accessible and useful. The focus is not on abstract legal theory, but on the practical issues that arise in day-to-day business operations. Courses can help teams spot risks earlier, understand when specialist advice is needed and deal with common legal issues in a more informed and consistent way.

For many organisations, this can support better internal processes. Managers may benefit from training on employment and HR responsibilities. Commercial teams may gain confidence when negotiating contracts or working with customers and suppliers. Operational teams may benefit from guidance on data protection, compliance or risk.

Testimonials

Acuity Counsel allows us as a company to access expert advice and support when we most need it. Unlike many firms, they have an absolute focus on customer experience. Acuity have found a winning formula – a single main point of contact who directs you to the most suitable specialist and clearly explained advice within a pricing structure that I haven’t seen matched. On each and every instruction, the timescale they have quoted has been beaten, they understand urgency and respond to it accordingly! A special mention must go to Acuity’s staff – friendly, efficient and professional with an overall manner that instils confidence and trust.
