ORIENTATION

Welcome to the Certificate in Human Resources Skills (L3Cert.Skill) Course which forms part of the introductory EduVisa Business Skills Programme. As companies modify priorities and operations, human resources functions can move from a dedicated HR role to that of the manager. Whether the majority of those important functions stay within HR at your organisation or are your responsibility as a manager, it is important that managers understand how much of their role is really about their people, as well as aspects of legislation, policy, and procedures that involve human resourcing issues.

This course is intended to empower managers to understand how much of their role is really about their people, as well as aspects of legislation, policy, and procedures that involve human resourcing issues.

By the end of this course, the learner/student will be able to:

• Describe the implications of different aspects of Human Resource Management on your daily responsibilities.
• Define human resources terms and subject matter.
• Recruit, interview, and retain employees more effectively.
• Follow up with new employees in a structured manner.
• Be an advocate for your employee's health and safety.
• Provide accurate, actionable feedback to employees.
• Act appropriately in situations requiring discipline and termination.
• Evaluate some of the strengths and opportunities for Human Resources in your own workplace.
• Identify three areas for further development within the Human Resources field as part of a personal action plan.
