IN SUMMARY: HR FOR THE NON-HR MANAGER

In today’s fast-moving world, many managers and supervisors are expected to deal with some human resource issues. They may be asked to take part in developing job descriptions, take part in interviews, or take responsibility for discipline.

Human Resources Training is designed for teaching those unaccustomed to HR the essential tasks and the scope of responsibilities they will be involved in while fulfilling their management role. 

This three-day workshop will introduce those managers to human resource concepts. We will walk you through the hiring process, from performing a skills inventory to conducting the interview; discuss orientation; and cover some issues that arise after the hiring (such as diversity issues, compensation, and discipline).

Whether the HR Manager has access to staff positioned to provide assistance or not, participants will need to know the essential competencies that impact their role, from management tactics, position analysis, training, and more.
