HR SKILLS
PEOPLE, WORK, AND HR TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY
The expectations placed on HR have changed faster than most career paths have prepared us for.
HR leaders are now asked to evaluate AI vendors, redesign workflows, defend ROI in front of finance, interpret predictive signals, oversee governance frameworks, and connect technology decisions to business performance. Yet most HR education was built for a world centered on policy, compliance, and operational delivery.
That gap continues to grow.
We created the People, Work, and HR Technology Strategist Certificate Program to help you build systems fluency, strategic alignment, data confidence, and responsible governance capability, the skills HR leaders now need to operate at the enterprise level.
This certificate program starts on March 24 and is included in the Premium membership.
The key differentiator of all our Certificate Programs is that they are led by global HR experts. Each class is a goldmine of insights, with real-world case discussions and opportunities to connect with peers across industries and regions.
Start date: March 20, 2026 (Orientation)
End date: May 19, 2026
100% Virtual
Live class times: 08:00 AM to 10:00 AM Pacific Time
This Certificate Program offers: 20 SHRM + 20 HRCI + 20 IHRIM
Students receive a diploma and a Credly badge upon completion.
And if you're planning your learning journey this year, several other programs are starting very soon.
STARTING SOON
UPCOMING CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS
Global Chief People Officer (starts March 23) – For senior HR leaders ready to lead enterprise-wide people strategy, organizational design, and transformation across global teams.
Workplace Well-Being and Mental Health Strategist (starts March 24) – This Certificate Program aims to help HR leaders and managers build healthier workplaces through responsible policies, leadership practices, and organizational design.
Learning doesn’t stop in the classroom. Many of the most valuable insights come from conversations with peers.
