Human Resources Business Partner Competency Training Series

About the Course

More than ever, HR is critical to the success of the workforce. HRBPs know that understanding HR is only a small part of your job, your business knowledge and ability to get up to speed with the details and the drivers of the business, division, or department you have been assigned to cover requires experience that few of us get on the job. It can seem impossible to make sure you are prepared for everything thrown your way! This course was designed for YOU with your success in mind!

We cover the keys to understanding business from a true business partnership perspective. While we will discuss HR specifics, our focus is on the competencies that make any HRBP successful in maintaining trust with their senior leadership team and at the same time, creating the ability to become more influential with those stakeholders you serve. Let’s face it, the CFO doesn’t truly appreciate you if you don’t understand the financial terms and processes that create the financial perspective of the organization.

Join us for a deep dive into the business competencies that will help you become a stronger Business Partner for your HR department representation. A quick look at the five courses in this series will show you that we mean business!

We realize that you have a busy schedule. We also realize that this training is 100% applicable to your work and we offer the classes during the business day so that you can utilize your time effectively. We guarantee, that you will be able to use the knowledge you gain immediately on the job and for those who want to become an HRBP, this is the training that will help you succeed!
