Techniques of analysis and common errors to be avoided in interpreting data and/or when evaluating reports and interpretations by third parties are presented. Significant attention is given to the critical evaluation of the data collection and processing results, as well as the communication of findings to convincingly support positive change. The program covers the relationships of HR outsourcing and consulting, with a particular focus on the opportunities and threats they pose for both parties involved in the agreement. The critical role of HR Metrics in improving the results of outsourcing for both the client and the provider is discussed.

Program Value
The program gives a quantitative approach to HRM, through introducing and familiarizing participants with key HR indicators, their calculation, application, and interpretation, as well as their connection to KPIs. Modern methods of communicating quantitative data are explored to fulfill these objectives.
Evaluation Method And Final Grade Computation
Evaluation is based on slf-assessment exercises at the end of each module and a final assignment. Successful completion of the program and award of a training certificate requires a final grade of at least 50%.
Learning Method Description
The program uses the eLearning educational method: learning takes place purely asynchronously (that is, on days and hours that serve the trainee, without mandatory attendance at a specific time or day), exclusively remotely (using a special educational platform via the internet from the trainee's area) and using digital educational tools such as video lectures, interactive self-assessment exercises, and other elearning tools that ensure effective and flexible individual self-learning. The program's training material becomes available at specific time periods, based on the training path followed, and then remains available on the training platform without restrictions throughout the duration of the program.
