Course Overview

The Mini Master in Human Resources Management Training Course provides HR professionals, HR business partners, managers, and those moving into HR leadership with an intensive, integrated overview of the full human resources management field, equipping them to manage the employee life cycle strategically and contribute to organizational performance. A mini master program condenses the breadth of modern HR into a structured, practical week, connecting strategy, core HR processes, and people leadership so that participants can see how the parts fit together and apply them in their organizations. In government entities, ministries, public authorities, banks, healthcare systems, and corporations, HR is increasingly expected to move beyond administration to become a strategic partner that attracts, develops, engages, and retains talent while ensuring compliance and driving culture and performance. The course covers the HR field comprehensively at a management level. Participants learn the evolution and strategic role of human resources, HR operating models and the HR business partner role, and the alignment of HR strategy with organizational strategy and workforce planning. The program then addresses the core functions across the employee life cycle: organization design, job analysis, and job architecture; talent acquisition and recruitment; onboarding; learning and development and talent management; performance management; and compensation, benefits, and total rewards. Participants also examine employee relations, engagement, and experience, HR policies, labor law, and compliance, HR analytics, metrics, and data-driven decision making, digital HR and the responsible use of technology and AI, organizational culture, change, and leadership, HR's role in diversity, wellbeing, and employer branding, and measuring and communicating the value and impact of HR, consolidated through an integrated capstone. The course is delivered through concept sessions, case studies, practical exercises across HR functions, and an integrated HR strategy capstone. Participants leave with an HR strategy and operating model framework, an employee life cycle toolkit, an HR metrics and analytics guide, a set of core HR process templates, and an HR improvement and action plan template.
