Data sessions cover sources, definitions, data quality checks, HRIS extracts and setting baselines and targets. Talent acquisition measures follow, including time-to-fill, cost-per-hire, offer acceptance and new hire retention.

Learning metrics cover training hours, completion rates, cost per learner and training return on investment, while the final days analyse compensation ratios, benefits cost, overtime and total workforce cost. Exercises use Excel to calculate indicators and present them in clear dashboards. HR managers, HR analysts, HR business partners and finance or planning staff who report on people costs will find it useful. You finish able to choose a focused set of KPIs, calculate them consistently and present findings that influence budget and staffing decisions.
