HR teams spend much of their time chasing forms, re-keying data and answering the same questions about leave, payslips and policies. That is time taken from workforce planning, engagement and capability building. Digital HR and automation give the function its strategic hours back, provided the right processes are chosen and the right people are brought along. Five days show HR leaders how.
You begin by assessing digital maturity and mapping current processes, then redesign them for automation: recruitment and applicant tracking, onboarding, leave, attendance, performance cycles, learning records and employee self-service. Technology sessions compare HRIS and payroll platforms, cloud models, integration, workflow tools and low-code options, along with chatbots and the sensible use of AI in HR. People analytics, data privacy, security and ethical limits receive proper attention. Change management and building the business case close the programme. HR managers and directors, HR business partners, payroll and records officers, talent acquisition specialists, IT staff supporting HR and public sector personnel officers will find it useful. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house. Afterwards you can map a process, estimate savings and write a requirements brief for a vendor.
Employees now expect to apply for leave, view payslips and update their records on a phone as easily as they bank or shop. Management expects the HR function to supply workforce data on demand and to cut administrative cost. Meeting both expectations with paper files and spreadsheets is no longer practical, particularly for organisations with dispersed staff and multiple locations.
The Strategic Digital HR & Process Automation Training Course helps HR professionals lead this change rather than react to it. It opens with the case for digital HR and a diagnostic of current maturity. Participants learn process mapping, identify candidates for automation and redesign workflows before any software is bought. The technology section explains the main HR system types, how modules fit together, what to ask vendors and how to handle data migration and integration. Further sessions explore people analytics, employee experience, data protection, and responsible use of automation and AI. The course finishes with change management, adoption and measuring return.
Participants work on their own processes and sample documents throughout. They complete a process map, a business case outline and a roadmap that are ready to take to management.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
