Stop making HR decisions based on gut feeling. Learn to ask the right question, back it with data, and walk into any room ready to prove it.

Taught by Kelly McFall, HR Data Insights & Innovation Leader at GE Vernova. You'll leave with a portfolio-ready business case and the confidence to use it.

THIS COURSE IS FOR YOU, IF...

YOU ARE A HR MANAGER

You're tired of getting questioned in rooms where everyone else shows up with numbers. This HR analytics course teaches you to turn a vague workforce concern into a sharp, testable question, then back your read of the data with confidence instead of caveats. You'll leave able to bring leadership a recommendation that holds up, not a hunch dressed up as analysis.
YOU ARE A TALENT ACQUISITION SPECIALIST

Sourcing decisions built on instinct only go so far, and AI hiring tools you can't interrogate go further than you'd like. This HR analytics training shows you how to sharpen recruiting with real metrics and how to audit AI screening tools for bias before they cost you a good candidate. You'll walk away making selection calls you can actually defend.
YOU ARE A ORGANIZATIONAL & TALENT DEVELOPMENT PRO

Narrative alone doesn't secure a budget, and you know it. This human resource analytics course gives you the framework to build evidence-based cases for engagement and retention initiatives, paired with dashboards and stories that move leaders to act. You'll stop pitching ideas and start presenting business cases.
YOU ARE AN ASPIRING HR ANALYST

You want into people analytics, but there's no clear roadmap and no HR-specific training built for someone starting out. This HR data analytics course walks you through the full analytics lifecycle, from framing a question to presenting a dashboard, using tools you already have access to. You'll leave with a portfolio project built for interviews, not just a certificate.

INDUSTRY-READY SKILLS

Every lesson feeds a real assignment, and every assignment feeds your final project. You'll test hypotheses on live HR datasets, build dashboards in Tableau or Power BI, and audit AI tools for bias, not in theory, but on the page.

REAL-WORLD INSIGHT

Learn from a case study on bias in automated candidate screening and a demo on using AI to explain statistics to a CHRO with zero patience for jargon. Every session is built around how the field actually works right now, not how a textbook says it should.

PORTFOLIO PROJECT

You'll finish with one stakeholder-ready HR Analytics Business Case you can present to your own leadership on Monday morning. It's the kind of proof that gets you taken seriously in the room, and considered for the next one.
