About this online course

Basic information

In the continuing education "Personalpsychologie Grundlagen" you acquire comprehensive knowledge about the various challenges and tasks in personnel psychology. The content covers a broad range of topics, including requirements analysis, employee recruitment, personnel marketing and employer branding, personnel selection, onboarding, competency management, personnel development, performance appraisal, and legal aspects.

A central aspect of the continuing education is understanding and applying psychological principles to act successfully in the modern job market. Since the recruitment market has shifted from an employer's to an applicant's market, companies are challenged to find talent specifically and retain them long-term. Psychological skills play a crucial role in identifying suitable candidates and facilitating their integration into the company.

By learning the basics of personnel psychology, you can help improve the quality of personnel selection and make the recruitment process more efficient. A particular advantage is gaining competence in the areas of strategic personnel marketing and employer branding. These are crucial for positioning the company as an attractive employer and attracting the best talent.

The onboarding of new employees is also facilitated by sound psychological knowledge, which enables new entrants to be integrated quickly and effectively into the company. This contributes significantly to employee satisfaction and retention, which is especially valuable in times of limited availability of qualified specialists.

Anyone interested in continuing education in personnel psychology should bring an interest in interpersonal processes and an affinity for organizational development. The ability to think analytically and take a strategic perspective is also beneficial, as it involves aligning both individual and organizational goals.

In summary, continuing education in personnel psychology not only provides useful knowledge and skills for the HR field, but also a strategic advantage in a competitive job market. It is particularly relevant for professionals working in HR, recruitment, talent management, or organizational development who want to further develop themselves.
