career. It provides the essential knowledge and practical understanding expected from HR support professionals.
You will study four core units that reflect the responsibilities of entry-level HR roles. Each module helps you build practical capability, understand HR operations, and develop the professional behaviours needed to work effectively within a people-focused environment.
Business, Culture and Change in Context
This unit provides the strategic context behind HR. You will explore how external factors like legislation, digital transformation, and social change influence organisational function.

Core Behaviours for People Professionals
Professionalism, ethics, and trust are essential in HR. This unit focuses on the values and behaviours expected of people-focused roles, from acting with integrity and promoting inclusion, to communicating clearly and handling sensitive issues with care. You will build the skills to earn respect and credibility within any HR team.
Essentials of People Practice
This is your practical foundation. You’ll cover core topics across the employee lifecycle, including recruitment, onboarding, performance, reward, and development.
