Summary
This qualification begins by examining the research and theory about the work of HR professionals and helps develop the skills needed to be an effective HR professional. You’ll explore the contexts within which HR strategies and policies are developed, the choices an organisation may make about its HR strategy, and the implications of adopting the different strategies. There is also an analytical element, as you’ll learn how to manage people effectively and responsibly through analytics. The compulsory modules lay the foundations for looking at employment relations and employee engagement concepts, or how coaching and mentoring support learning in the workplace.
Key features of the course • Gain an understanding of the HR professional’s role, addressing ethical dilemmas, EDI (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion), and sustainable HR management • Develop essential people management skills such as interviewing, training, and managing performance • Learn to manage people effectively and responsibly using people analytics • Option to include a focus on either employee relations or workplace learning
