Highlights

Human resource management has evolved significantly from its origins as a personnel department and is taking on a more strategic role in an organisation. This programme is an introduction to the core concepts of human resource management and aims to equip students with solid knowledge of human resource principles and an overview of the HR evolution.
 
The programme discusses the evolving role of human resource management, from its past task-oriented role to its future strategy-driven role in an organisation. It covers key concepts in human resource management such as workforce planning, analysis, design and future workforce trends like gig economy, remote working and agility. The programme also covers the core HR knowledge of recruiting and selecting employees, managing employee relationships, compensation, employee benefits and organisational ethics.
 
This programme is suitable for those who are interested in joining the human resource sector as well as others wishing to gain an overview of the human resource function.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

  1. examine the evolving role of HR and its growing importance to align with organsation strategy;
