HR teams still spend much of their week on manual approvals, spreadsheet trackers and routine employee queries, leaving little time to advise the business. Five days equip senior HR leaders to change that. You begin by mapping current HR processes, spotting waste and deciding which are worth automating, then examine the digital HR landscape: HRIS and payroll platforms, applicant tracking, learning systems, employee self-service portals, e-signatures and chatbots.
Hands-on sessions cover workflow design for onboarding, leave, expense approvals and performance cycles using low-code tools, with an introduction to robotic process automation and generative AI assistants for drafting job adverts and policies. People analytics receives a full day: defining HR metrics, building dashboards in Power BI or Excel, and reading turnover, absence and pay equity signals. The remaining time deals with selecting vendors, building a business case, data privacy, change management and the employee experience. The programme is aimed at HR directors, heads of HR, HR business partners, HR systems managers, chief operating officers and consultants in corporates, banks, NGOs and public bodies. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house with a CPD-accredited certificate. Afterwards you can present a costed digital HR roadmap to your executive team.
Employees now expect the same simple, mobile experience from their employer that they get as consumers, while executives expect HR to show measurable value for every shilling it spends. Organisations that digitise HR well free their people teams from administration, improve data accuracy and respond faster to workforce questions. Those that buy software without redesigning processes often end up with expensive systems and the same old bottlenecks.
This executive programme treats digital HR as a management challenge before a technology one. Participants learn to diagnose processes, set a vision and sequence of improvements, and make sound choices among platforms and delivery models. They examine how automation affects recruitment, onboarding, time and attendance, payroll interfaces, learning and performance management, and where artificial intelligence helps or creates risk, particularly bias and explainability.
The course combines strategic discussion with practical building. Participants design automated workflows, sketch dashboards and score vendor proposals against weighted criteria. Governance receives careful attention, including data protection, access rights and records retention. The week closes with each participant assembling a digital HR roadmap, a business case with costs and benefits, and a change plan that brings managers and employees along.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
