HR teams still lose hours to paper leave forms, spreadsheet headcount reports, email approvals and repeated data entry, while managers wait for answers and employees lose trust in the process. Automation can remove that drag, but it succeeds only when HR leaders redesign the work and bring people with them. Five days prepare you to lead that change. You map and simplify core HR processes, compare HRIS and talent platforms, define requirements and manage vendor selection, then automate recruitment, onboarding, leave, performance reviews, training records and exit workflows.
Sessions on employee self-service, chatbots, robotic process automation, low-code workflows and responsible use of AI show what is practical today. You also build HR dashboards covering turnover, time to hire and absenteeism, and examine data privacy, system security and change management. HR directors, HR managers and business partners, talent and payroll specialists, HRIS administrators, IT liaison staff and consultants in corporates, public bodies and NGOs are the target audience. Delivery is in the classroom, online or in-house, ending with a CPD-accredited certificate. Afterwards you can present a costed automation roadmap for your function.
Employees now expect the same speed and convenience from their employer's HR services that they get from consumer apps. At the same time, leaders want reliable workforce data to guide decisions on hiring, pay, skills and retention. HR departments that depend on manual processes find it difficult to meet either expectation and spend most of their capacity on administration instead of advising the business.
The Leadership and Performance in Digital HR & Process Automation Training Course is aimed at people who must lead this transition, not merely operate software. It opens with a vision of the digital HR function and a method for assessing current maturity. Participants then document and improve processes before automating them, using process mapping and lean principles. The programme reviews the HR technology landscape, from core HRIS and applicant tracking to learning platforms, performance tools, payroll integration and self-service portals, and shows how workflow automation, robotic process automation and AI assistants fit.
Leadership is a theme throughout: building the business case, engaging staff and unions, managing resistance, protecting personal data and measuring success. Participants work on a live process from their own organisation, so that by the end they have a prioritised automation roadmap with benefits, risks, costs and a rollout schedule.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
