Abstract

“Talent management” modules focus on equipping HR professionals with advanced skills in talent management, covering key areas such as employee journey mapping, employee development methodologies, and adult education principles. Through a blend of seminars, case studies and group projects, students will gain hands-on experience in designing and implementing strategies that enhance employee engagement, development, and retention, ultimately driving organizational success. "HR Analytics" course focuses on developing data-driven approaches in Human Resource Management (HRM) through the Employee Journey Map (EJM) framework. Students will explore key HR domains, including employer branding, workforce planning, recruitment and onboarding, compensation & benefits (C&B), training & development (T&D), and off-boarding, by analyzing stakeholders, reporting methods, and HR metrics. Through case studies and hands-on assignments, students will gain practical experience in applying HR analytics to optimize decision-making and drive organizational performance.
