Overview

Develop better understanding of the human aspects of an organisation and know the concepts, principles, processes, and practices involved in their effective management by studying this course.

Description

Employees are the greatest asset of a company. Their performance and contributions are detrimental to the productivity and overall success of business operations. They are also the most complex component of an organisation, as they exhibit different characteristics, needs, behaviours, and attitudes that can influence or complicate business activities and functions. Because of these, it is vital to fully understand these human constituents of the organisation in order to find and retain great employees, keep them motivated, and ensure their performance and participation. This is where personnel management comes into play.

Personnel management is an administrative function that concerns the effective use and control of an organisation’s workforce. It also addresses problems that may be hindering employees from understanding and meeting expectations, reaching their full potentials, and building their commitment to the organisation. Personnel management happens at every level within a company, which is why managers should have thorough understanding of the discipline.

This Online Personnel Management course will introduce you to the essentials of personnel management and will show you how to effectively handle the human problems of an organisation and get the best out of employees. It will provide comprehensive coverage on such matters as human behaviour, workplace conditions and communications, and operations control. It will also go over the procedures, practices, and strategies for staff recruitment, induction and training, working in teams, addressing grievances and complaints, and monitoring and reporting performance.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
