In the continuing education on Strategic Personnel Planning, participants learn about the essential tasks and fundamentals of this important HR area. The content covers current influencing factors and trends, the requirements for strategic personnel planning, and practical implementations such as interactive case studies and simulations using Excel.
A central component is the baseline analysis of the starting situation, where job families are formed and key positions are identified. The projection periods are also defined. Another foundation of the continuing education is the derivation of strategic personnel requirements. Participants learn to identify personnel requirement drivers as well as the strategic impact on individual job families, and to create forecasts and impact scenarios.
The module on forecasting personnel headcount is especially valuable, covering extrapolation methods, variable turnover scenarios, and risk analyses. An in-depth look at gap analyses and strategic measures enables participants to determine gross and net personnel requirements and to develop qualitative and quantitative control options.
The continuing education also provides insights into the regular operations of strategic personnel planning, teaching critical success factors and practical tips. Planning tools play an important role here.
This continuing education is especially interesting for HR business partners, HR officers, controllers, and corporate developers in large enterprises and SMEs who want to deepen strategic personnel planning in their organization and put it into practice. Participants learn how to build processes for strategic personnel planning in a targeted manner and design them efficiently. They are enabled to analyze the development of personnel requirements and headcount and derive recommendations for action.
Overall, the continuing education offers not only theoretical knowledge but also practical applications and methods that can be implemented directly in the company. Participants can develop planning aids and experience the current challenges of strategic personnel planning firsthand.
An additional benefit of this continuing education is obtaining a digital certificate of participation in the form of Open Badges, which serve as recognized confirmation of the acquired knowledge and skills. With these comprehensive learning content and certificates, the continuing education offers a valuable opportunity for professional development in the HR area.
