Human Resource Analytics (HRA) Graduate Certificate

A growing number of organizations use human resource analytics (HRA) to inform and support strategy and to maintain a competitive advantage. Yet, a talent shortage has emerged, leaving many organizations searching for individuals who understand how to apply and implement HR analytics. The objective of the HRA Graduate Certificate (HRAGC) is to address this talent shortage by developing knowledge and skills in HR analytics. Through hands-on application of analytics, using tools such as R, HR professionals and graduate students with an interest in HR will learn how to answer HR questions using data and to grow an organization’s HR analytics capabilities. By the end of the certificate, students will be able to choose and implement appropriate data-analytic tools; follow ethical and legal standards; and improve critical organizational functions, such as workforce planning, staffing, learning and development performance management, and retention.
