This Specialization helps learners build practical HR skills for managing talent across the full employee lifecycle, from workforce planning and recruitment through selection, onboarding, retention, engagement, and inclusion. Across three courses, learners will explore how to attract qualified candidates, evaluate and onboard new hires, use data to identify retention risks, and design inclusive practices that support employee success. The Specialization is designed for current HR professionals, managers with talent responsibilities, and learners preparing to enter the human resources field.
Applied Learning Project
Learners will complete hands-on dialogues, role plays, practice assessments, and capstone scenarios that mirror real HR decisions across recruitment, selection, onboarding, retention, and inclusion. These projects ask learners to apply course concepts to authentic workplace challenges, such as choosing recruiting strategies, evaluating candidates, planning onboarding, identifying retention risks, and improving inclusive team practices.
