Course Description

The Foundation Certificate in People Practice is a new qualification released by The Chartered Institute of Personnel Development, which you can choose to study online through Grŵp Llandrillo Menai. It is aimed at people who may already be in an HR role or those aspiring to become HR professionals. Specifically aimed at HR administrative and HR advisor roles, the course focuses on developing individual HR skills in contemporary human resource related subjects.

Emphasis will be on the role of HR as a business partner to line management, and will explore how HR plays a major role in forging an organisation's vision. On successful completion of the course, you will be awarded The Foundation Certificate in People Practice.
