Course Overview

Helping employees grow isn’t just good HR, it’s smart business. When people see a clear path for their development, they stay engaged, motivated, and committed. That’s where career development planning comes in.

This four-day, hands-on course is designed to help HR professionals, talent managers, and people leaders design and implement meaningful career development strategies. It goes beyond theory to give you practical tools,templates, and approaches you can use right away.
