About this course
There is a lot of information on the internet for consumers, explaining their rights and telling them what to do to complain about goods or products they buy, but rather less to help retailers.
This course has been written from the perspective of the RETAILER. It’s for anyone who sells goods or products to the public.
It’s a practical guide to consumer law. It’s all about making sure products meet legal standards and knowing what customers’ rights are – in order to stay within the law when dealing with a complaint.
The Consumer Rights Training for Retailers selling goods looks at The Consumer Rights Act 2015 in depth, terms & conditions between the seller and the customer and how to effectively deal with customer disputes, including the Alternative Dispute Resolution.
We also offer consumer rights training for those selling services and for those selling digital content.

Good thing to do
This 1 took my ages but good
Each area was thorough
The questions really make you read them 2 or 3 times with the wording. They really make you think. And occasionally getting a question wrong as I read it incorrectly.
Clear and informative

Interesting & Educating.
Loads of safety precautions ; they're all necessary and easily adaptable. Hope everyone adhere to them as future regulations!!
Powerful Segment Of Legislature.
When I first saw that course I exclaimed ; recently a Car Dealer thought he got the better of me via a "Distance Sale". He didn't know that I was fully aware of such "Heavy Weight Legislature" so he breached his obligations. I sent him "The Consumer Contacts (Information, Cancellation, And Additional Charges) Regulation 2013" that replaced the Distance Selling Regulation & give key Cancellation Rights when you enter into a Contract at a distance.
Lots to know.
There are a lot of rules & regulations to know and the course explains them quickly & clearly so you understand them .
Why is this training important?
Compliance
It's important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.
The Consumer Rights Act sets certain standards that are expected for goods, services or digital content.
It gives customers a number of new rights and remedies if the products or services they buy fall short of the standards required.
Anyone selling goods, services or digital content should have a thorough understanding of The Consumer Rights Act.

(1) Every contract to supply goods is to be treated as including a term that the quality of the goods is satisfactory.
(2) The quality of goods is satisfactory if they meet the standard that a reasonable person would consider satisfactory, taking account of—
(a) any description of the goods,
(b) the price or other consideration for the goods (if relevant), and
(c) all the other relevant circumstances (see subsection (5)).
