Enrollment Information
Description
Successful organizations understand that it’s much more cost-effective to retain current employees than to recruit and train new ones. And they recognize that benefits and compensation packages that are both attractive to employees and cost-effective to the organization are important components of effective retention strategies. eCornell has partnered with the Cornell University’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations (ILR) to create the Human Resources: Benefits and Compensation certificate. Even the most seasoned HR professionals can learn something new from this six-course certificate series addressing legal and organizational factors related to retirement plans, health plans, and other benefit packages.
Who Should Take This Certificate?
The Human Resources: Benefits and Compensation Certificate is appropriate for Human Resource employees and managers seeking a richer, deeper understanding of policies and practices related to benefits and compensation from a leading Ivy League institution.
