About The Class – And How To Earn Your Certificate In HR Leadership

This program prepares HR professionals to excel as leaders in organizations of all sizes because it provides the vital knowledge and outlook needed to become a strategic leader – not just within the HR function – but for the overall organization.

To be an effective HR Leader, you need a strategic perspective and specific skills that go beyond the legal and compliance expertise required to succeed in an HR Generalist or Business Partner role. This means you must be able to influence organizational change and connect HR to the bottom line.

Establishing yourself as an HR Leader – and preparing for a strategic leadership role and the responsibilities that go along with it – requires additional training and expertise.

By utilizing lecture, Interactive Exercises, and years of practical experience, our trainers will give you the insight you need to be an effective HR Leader – and earn your certificate in strategic leadership!
