It's becoming increasingly common that dealing with HR policy and process sits with the management team in the business and the HR team is there to act in a support and advice capacity. If this is the case in your business, knowing how to manage HR issues and understanding policy and processes will be incredibly important.

A little. The course is more focused on the practical skills required to manage HR issues and not so focused on understanding the law. This is where your HR team can provide the right guidance and advice.

If you are attending our scheduled open course, you are more than welcome to have these with you during the course to see how the skills and approaches will fit into your individual policies and processes. If we deliver this course in-house for you, we will chat with you about specific policies and processes to use in the course.

Yes. We have lots of articles about HR and performance management in the performance management section of our blog.
