Human Resource Fundamentals

All organizations, large and small, rely on the performance of their people to succeed. As companies grow, it becomes necessary to develop systems and processes that support the human capital of the business. Human Resources Management is no longer just an administrative role; it has become professionally recognized and strategically necessary for high performing organizations. Often, the HR leaders of the organization are the ones that can have the most impact on the lives of the employees and in the success of the organization.

Human Resource Fundamentals examines the many aspects of an HR Practitioner's role and provides best practice and up to date approaches to effective implementation. Hands-on, practical application takes place in class using tools and templates that can be immediately incorporated in your own organizations.
