Core modules

The curriculum comprises a mix of online core and elective modules. The core modules are structured around 4 pillars of contemporary HR leadership and talent strategy. Following this, you will have the opportunity to explore strategies for an increasingly digital workplace with a choice of electives.

People Analytics

The People Analytics: Transforming HR Strategy with Data Science programme has been added as a specialised component for this programme.

This 8-week fixed module equips HR and business leaders to align people strategy with organisational goals through data-led decision-making. You will explore how people analytics combines data science and psychological insight to address workforce challenges, strengthen strategic alignment and improve organisational outcomes.

The module draws on research from the University’s Psychometrics Centre and helps you develop the skills to build or scale a people analytics function, design ethical experiments and apply workforce data to real organisational challenges. You will also generate predictive insights to support effective people and business decisions.
