HR teams still lose hours to chasing approvals, retyping employee data and answering the same leave and payslip questions. Digital tools can return that time to people work, but only if processes are fixed before they are automated. In five days you map existing HR processes, find waste and decide what to automate. You compare HRIS and HCM platforms, build requirements for recruitment tracking, e-onboarding, performance cycles, leave management and employee self-service, and learn how to prepare clean records for migration.
Practical labs use low-code workflow tools, forms, spreadsheets and dashboards to build approval chains, reminders and reports, and introduce the sensible use of AI assistants in drafting and screening, with attention to bias. The programme also covers data privacy, access control, change management and measuring return. HR officers and managers, HR business partners, payroll and administration staff, IT liaison officers and heads of department in companies, public bodies and NGOs will benefit. It runs in classroom venues, online or in-house, with a CPD-accredited certificate. Afterwards you can write an automation business case and launch a first workflow.
Employees now expect the same simple digital service from HR that they get from their bank or phone provider. Meanwhile managers need accurate headcount, cost and attrition information on demand, and auditors expect a clear trail for every approval. Paper files, scattered spreadsheets and email chains make all of this slow and error-prone.
This course shows HR professionals how to modernise practically, without requiring a technical background. It starts with process mapping and prioritisation, then reviews the main digital HR components and how to choose and implement a system, including vendor evaluation, data migration and integration with payroll and finance. Participants build real automations for requests and approvals, and learn how dashboards and basic people analytics turn records into decisions.
Responsible use runs through every session. Participants consider confidentiality, consent, access rights, fairness in algorithmic tools and the human impact of change, and prepare communication and training plans to bring staff along. The outcome is a prioritised automation roadmap and a working prototype workflow for their own organisation, with a simple measure of time saved.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
