Acquire comprehensive basics of personnel management specifically in training

Successful HR management requires a solid foundation with knowledge in all areas of HR management. This includes know-how in the area of recruiting as well as in the disciplines of personnel development and personnel administration. In addition, managers in particular should know at least the basics of modern personnel management, such as what is important in personnel controlling. With this broad foundation in personnel management, companies of all sizes can plan and work successfully with their "human capital" in the long term. Especially in times of increasing staff shortages and growing competitive pressure, competent and satisfied employees are an important prerequisite for long-term corporate success. With this training you will acquire all the necessary basics you need for your successful work.

 

HR basics - demands on executives and management

Modern HR management is becoming increasingly complex: HR management and HR controlling require ever greater professionalization of all those involved. Whether this involves personnel administration and compliance with guidelines and contracts, or personnel recruitment in conjunction with employer branding - important basics in personnel management are always required. This training provides participants with a very practical overview of the basics of personnel management and administration. Not only managers and members of management will benefit from this. Future decision makers will also gain important insights into the basics of successful human resources work.
