PLEASE NOTE: This is a NZPPA member-only special and is not available to non-members. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

As payroll continues to evolve, payroll practitioners are expected to understand far more than simply processing pays. The introduction of new employment legislation, increasing compliance expectations and closer integration between payroll and HR mean practitioners need broader technical knowledge than ever before.

To help members prepare, NZPPA has combined two of its most practical virtual classroom courses into a special member-only package. Together, these courses provide essential knowledge in two areas that regularly create payroll risk and require sound professional judgement: termination payments and HR practices that directly impact payroll.

Whether you are preparing for the proposed Employment Leave Act, reviewing payroll processes, strengthening internal controls or simply looking to expand your payroll capability, these courses provide practical guidance that can be applied immediately in the workplace.

Each course may be booked individually for $275 + GST, or attend both courses for only $500 + GST, saving $50 + GST. The package may also be shared between two different attendees, making it an excellent professional development opportunity for payroll teams.

• Payroll Termination Essentials
  3 September 2026 • 9:00 am to 4:15 pm
