Description: | |||
In recent years Human Resource Development (HRD) has become increasingly recognised within organisations as a critical strategic function for achieving organisational effectiveness. Knowledge of the HRD process is vital to every manager in order to ensure that such processes are designed and harnessed according to company goals and individual needs. The interactions within this unit provide an introduction to the role and practice of HRD with particular practical emphasis on the training and development (T&D) function and session delivery. Students in this unit develop a broad view of the complex and contesting issues that confront the construction of systems of learning and knowledge generation. Thus they learn the basic concepts and theories relevant to this area, and apply some of these concepts to their own current workplace reality, through simulated training delivery and their own workplace projects.
