English for Human Resources

Introduction

Communication is an essential part of the HR role – especially when working internationally.  For example, when you recruit a new employee, good communication skills enable you to choose the best candidate; when you’ are training, coaching, or evaluating an employee, you need to communicate your expectations clearly and respond appropriately; and when there is a conflict, you will need your communication skills to solve the problem in a suitable manner.  This course will help you to develop your language and communication to handle day-to-day HR issues in English.

Who is it for

This course is aimed at HR Managers, working in an international business environment, who need to improve their communication skills in English.
