Welcome to ‘Industrial Relations in Practice’ on siptulearn.ie! It was a pleasure to work with you all through our Return-to-Learn days and our first residential in Castlebar.

You can access material relevant to the modules by clicking on the relevant links on the right hand side: ‘Introducing Industrial Relations’ or ‘Proportional Representation’ for example. On this page you will find some general information, such as help with referencing, a link to a copy of your text book and the calendar for this year.
