HR Essentials for 2024
Whether someone is new to human resources or seeks to enhance or refresh their knowledge and understanding, this one-day workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the HR function.
While HR practitioners often learn on the job, this course will help prepare you in advance. The critical components of HR are presented in an engaging format facilitated by one of ERC’s credentialed HR Consultants.
HR Essentials for 2024 teaches HR practitioners the skills and knowledge they need to keep their organization in compliance and implement HR initiatives that drive business outcomes and employee engagement.
This consultative program begins with foundational human resources knowledge and skills and then digs deeper into critical HR compliance awareness and application. Throughout the day, participants will learn about workplace requirements, the employee journey, U.S. employment laws, and much more!
