This training will focus on practical applications of HR analytics, including workforce planning, talent acquisition analytics, employee retention strategies, and performance management optimization. This course is ideal for HR managers, business leaders, and data analysts seeking to build a data-driven HR function. Participants will learn how to collect and analyze HR data, create meaningful reports, and present findings that align HR strategies with business objectives. By the end of the training, attendees will have a deep understanding of HR analytics best practices, HR key performance indicators (KPIs), and predictive HR models to enhance organizational success.
