Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from Langara College to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over the experience of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.
Learners in this program/experience will explore human resources management foundations with an emphasis on defining and applying various processes and techniques to acquire and maintain an efficient workforce. They will apply technical aspects of employee management including reviewing and recommending processes or policies to support workforce planning, recruitment, training, performance management, total reward, and/or health and safety management.
