Across a variety of different fields, organisations are increasingly using data and the insights that can be gained from this data to help inform decisions and shape their strategies. There are significant opportunities for analytics to inform the effective management of human resources across a broad range of dimensions. This course provides an introduction to the areas that analytics can be used to support various aspects of human resource management and examines some examples of how data is being used to help organisations improve the performance of their people. Students will get hands on experience applying data analytics techniques to HR data sets and develop an understanding of how HR analytics can be integrated into HR policies and practices and can help inform HR strategy.
