HR departments still lose hours to manual onboarding forms, leave requests, payroll queries and spreadsheet reporting, while business leaders ask for faster decisions and better workforce insight. Five days give HR leaders a way to decide where technology belongs, what to automate and how to bring employees with them. You build a digital HR vision linked to business strategy, then audit current processes to find the steps that waste time or create errors.
Topics include HRIS and cloud platform selection, employee self-service, applicant tracking, learning platforms, robotic process automation and low-code workflow tools, chatbots, and an introduction to generative AI in HR work. You map and redesign recruitment, onboarding, performance and offboarding journeys, define metrics for a people analytics dashboard, and weigh data privacy, bias and ethics in automated decisions. Change leadership and vendor management close the programme. HR directors, HR business partners, heads of talent and people operations, HRIS and payroll managers, and consultants in corporates, banks, NGOs and public bodies will gain most. Afterwards you can present a prioritised automation roadmap with benefits and risks. Delivery is in classroom, online or in-house format, and the CPD-accredited certificate recognises completion.
The expectations placed on HR have shifted. Employees compare workplace systems with the apps they use daily, executives want workforce data they can act on, and every cost line is questioned. Organisations that digitise HR without a clear strategy often end up with expensive software, duplicated records and staff who work around the system. Those that choose well free their teams for advisory work and improve the employee experience.
The Strategy and Innovation in Digital HR & Process Automation Training Course starts with strategic questions: what the business needs from HR, how mature current processes are and which investments matter first. Participants then examine the technology landscape, from core HR information systems to recruitment, learning and performance tools, and learn how to map, simplify and automate workflows before buying anything. Sessions on analytics, artificial intelligence, data protection and ethics prepare participants to use automation responsibly.
The course is workshop-based. Participants map real processes from their own organisations, test automation logic with simple low-code tools, evaluate vendor proposals and prepare a business case. They leave with a digital HR roadmap and a change plan they can take to their leadership team.
On completion, participants will be able to:
