Human Resources Learning and Development - HRM300

This unit provides an introduction to the role and practice of learning and development (L&D) in organisations with an applied industry component. With industry partners participating, the unit provides students with the opportunity to apply knowledge and skills developed through the unit to the training and development function and training delivery. Students enrolled in this unit develop a broad view of the complex and contested issues that confront organisations when constructing systems of learning and knowledge generation. Through this process, students learn the concepts and theories relevant to this area, and can apply these concepts to current workplace realities by actively engaging with a partner organisation on a project of contemporary strategic relevance to produce a report that focuses on the L&D function and provides recommendations to address the relevant issues. Students will gain an insight into organisational L&D and be able to contextualise their graduate capabilities into the report.
