SUMMARY:Winning Cases at WSIB and WSIAT (Virtual Event)
DESCRIPTION:Program Overview \n\n\nAppearing before the WSIB and the WSIAT requires more than familiarity with workers’ compensation legislation and policy; it requires strategic thinking\, careful preparation\, and effective advocacy. In this workshop\, experienced advocates will guide participants through the key stages of a successful appeal\, highlighting both procedural requirements and advocacy best practices. \nTopics will include: \n  \n\nAppealing a board-level decision within mandated timelines;\nIdentifying\, sorting\, and prioritizing issues in an appeal;\nDeveloping a persuasive “theory of the case”;\nMeeting pre-hearing disclosure obligations;\nObtaining and organizing relevant evidence;\nAnticipating and responding to the other side’s arguments;\nPreparing clients for hearings;\nEffectively using and challenging medical information;\nMaking compelling opening statements and final arguments; and\nQuestioning and cross-questioning witnesses.\n\n\nWhat to Expect: \nIn this virtual skills training workshop\, experienced worker and employer advocates will guide participants through the workers’ compensation appeal process\, from an adverse Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) decision to a hearing before the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal (WSIAT).  \nDesigned for advocates appearing before the WSIB and WSIAT\, the session will focus on practical advocacy strategies\, evidentiary considerations\, and common challenges that arise at each stage of the appeal process. Participants will have opportunities to ask questions and engage with approaches they can apply directly in their own files.  \nParticipants will also receive a comprehensive set of digital materials\, including textbook chapters\, case summaries\, and additional resources developed by Lancaster House program lawyers for continued learning and future reference.  \n\nWho Should Attend? \nThis workshop is well suited for professionals involved in WSIB and WSIAT advocacy\, including: \n\nWorker Advocates and Representatives – Individuals representing injured workers in appeals who want to strengthen case strategy\, evidence development\, and hearing advocacy skills. \nEmployer Advocates and Consultants – Professionals acting for employers before the WSIB or WSIAT who require a deeper understanding of effective appeal preparation and presentation. \n\n\nLearning Outcomes: \nParticipants will leave this training equipped to:  \n\nNavigate the WSIB appeal pathway\, from a board-level decision to a WSIAT hearing; \nIdentify\, organize\, and prioritize issues in workers’ compensation appeals; \nDevelop and present a clear and persuasive theory of the case; and \nPrepare effectively for hearings\, including witness examination and argument. \n\n\n\nPricing \n\n$995.00Add to cart	\n			\n  \nSpeakers Coming Soon. \nCPD\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR Alberta for 4.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved by CPHR BC & Yukon for 4.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nThis program has been approved for Continuing Professional Development 4.5 hours under Section A of the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Log of the Human Resource Professionals Association (HRPA).\n\n\n\n\n \n\nThis program has been approved by the Law Society of British Columbia for 4.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\nMembers of the Law Society of New Brunswick may consider this program for 4.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\nMembers of the Law Society of Ontario may consider counting this program for 4.5 Substantive hours; 0 Professionalism hours.\nMembers of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society may count this program for 4.5 Continuing Professional Development hours.\n\n\n\n\nSupported by the Institute for Work & Health:
