The aim of this course is to produce HR professionals who are knowledgeable and competent managers in their own right, as well as having their own specialist knowledge and skills in the area of the management and development of people.
In a rapidly changing commercial environment, HR managers are taking an increasingly central role in strategic decision making. This course recognises the challenges faced by today's HR managers, and seeks to equip you with the skills to meet them. You will not only enhance your knowledge and understanding of key issues within the field, you will also develop the confidence to apply them in a professional environment, creating innovative solutions to complex organisational problems.

Additional course information
The course will benefit those HR managers who are preparing themselves for senior roles and are seeking to develop their strategic and international perspectives and establish HR as a major influence in the formation of company policy. Specifically, students will gain exposure to a range of cutting-edge HR concepts, increased managerial effectiveness and enhanced process and implementation skills.
The organisational benefits are in having highly educated managers, able to view issues operationally and strategically and who apply leading-edge solutions to organisational problems. Specifically, your organisation will gain managers who understand and can implement organisational change, HR practitioners who can think outside the box, offering pragmatic solutions to organisational issues.
The format of the course will be a mixture of theory presentation, discussion and practical skill development based on case studies, simulations and structured experiences, which reflect typical HRM issues.
Underlying our approach is a strong conviction that managers learn with and from each other in the pursuit of finding solutions to real-life problems at work. We, therefore, encourage participative learning methods and work-based assignments so that not only the individual managers benefit from personal developments, but their employing organisations also obtain significant benefits.
