Introduction to Human Resources

Every employer makes decisions about people long before it builds a formal HR function. Recruitment, performance conversations and employee relations already shape whether the organisation can grow well. This course gives learners a concise view of that operating system. It connects workforce planning with the practical moments that define the employee lifecycle.
