Description The Human Resource Planning course will explain how this aspect links the human resources function to the organization's mission, goals, objectives and strategies.

Through this offering, you will be taught the process of determining human resource requirements and formulating goals, objectives and strategies. This means you will learn to be forward looking and anticipate future human resource requirements, and develop plans and strategies to meet them. As such, you will develop and analyze alternative human resource strategies and critically assess their relationship to the operational and strategic plans of the organization.
