You have probably heard of ‘Accounting for non Accountants’ – well, this is HR for non HR people. This programme is designed for line managers or those for whom HR is only one significant part of their role.
HR 101: HR for non HR People is a jargon free introduction for those who have people responsibilities to help them recognise and understand good people practice which they can apply to everyday people management situations in their teams and organisations.
Topics covered in this one day programme include:
- Resourcing (recruitment and selection)
- Learning and Development (training)
- Performance Management (appraisal)
- Change Management (making change happen)
- Legal Compliance and Employment Relations (staying on the right side of NZ Employment Law)
A workbook containing information and exercises is provided. The programme is informed by leading edge research and was fully revised and updated in 2017.
