HR teams still lose hours each week to chasing signatures, re-keying employee data, answering the same leave questions and compiling headcount reports by hand. Every manual step is also a chance for error or a data breach.
In five days, HR professionals learn to find those bottlenecks and replace them with reliable digital workflows. You map current processes, set automation priorities, and work with HRIS and applicant tracking features, e-forms, shared mailboxes, chatbots and low-code tools such as Power Automate and Google Apps Script. Practical sessions automate job requisitions, candidate screening steps, offer letters, onboarding checklists, leave and attendance approvals, probation reminders, exit clearance and monthly HR dashboards. The data side covers employee records quality, integrations with payroll, access control, consent and data protection duties. You also look at AI in HR, including its bias risks, and how to manage staff concerns during change. HR officers and managers, HRIS administrators, payroll and administration staff, talent acquisition specialists, shared services teams and HR consultants in public and private organisations will find it practical. You return able to deliver a working automation pilot and a business case for the next one. Classroom, online and in-house formats lead to a CPD-accredited certificate.
The HR function is expected to be faster, more analytical and closer to the business, while carrying a growing compliance load. Paper files, email approvals and standalone spreadsheets cannot support that expectation. At the same time, a poorly planned system can automate a bad process, expose personal data or alienate employees who are not consulted.
The Applied Digital HR & Process Automation Training Course takes a process-first approach. Participants begin by mapping end-to-end HR processes, measuring time, error and cost, and ranking opportunities by value and feasibility. They then learn the building blocks of automation: forms, triggers, approvals, notifications, document generation, integrations and dashboards. The core sessions apply these blocks to recruitment, onboarding, time and leave, performance cycles, learning administration and offboarding. Throughout, the programme addresses data protection, role-based access, audit trails, ethical use of AI and the human side of adoption, including communication and training for line managers.
Delivery is hands-on. Participants design and build at least one working workflow, test it with sample data, document it and prepare a short business case with implementation steps, risks and success measures.
After completing the course, participants will be able to:
