Course Content

Introduction to Human Resources – Human resource departments now include many different elements. They are not just reserved for the recruitment of employees. This first section will introduce you to the different elements that make up a human resource department and its importance in business. 

Recruitment and Selection – One of the most significant investments in a business will be the staff that you employ to help you run your company. Therefore, investing in recruitment and selection and having the right processes in place is crucial to the success of your business. You will learn the fundamentals of recruitment and selection and be able to navigate through the process to attract and retain high calibre employees. 

New Employees – Once the recruitment and selection process comes to a natural end and you appoint the most suitable candidate, the onboarding process is the next step. In this section, you will discover the core components of onboarding and recognise the importance of orientation and making the employee feel welcome and well informed. 

Workplace Policy – In every business there are certain policies and procedures that you will need to put in place to ensure that you operate a safe and fair business and you protect the rights of your employees. In this section you will learn about the importance of organisational policy and the different types of policy that you will need to create as part of your HR department.

Employee Feedback – Monitoring performance and productivity is crucial in the workplace if you are to succeed as a business. In this module, you will learn about the importance of giving and receiving feedback, the different types of feedback, and how to deliver it in the most beneficial way.
