General Course Information

Introduction

This module is concerned with managing people, both individually and collectively, in the workplace. Human resource management (HRM) has assumed new prominence as concerns about global competitiveness; the demographics of ageing and climate change persist. It is argued that these global drivers of change require managers to adjust the way in which they manage in order to achieve innovation, sustainable growth and an effective use of employees. Human resource management is associated with a set of distinctive best practices that aim to recruit, develop, reward and manage people in ways that create what are called high performing work systems.

Thus, this module is intended to equip educational officers with knowledge and skills to effectively and efficiently manage human resources. It focuses on key areas of human resources management namely understanding HRM, human resource planning, job analysis, human resource development, recruitment and selection, performance management, performance appraisal and motivation and reward management.
