Overview

For many businesses, now is just the beginning of an era of technological and social change.

The rapidly evolving landscape is disrupting workplaces, creating skills gaps and raising questions for leaders across industries.

How can organisations leverage technology and big data to decide which tasks to automate and which capabilities to develop? What can HR professionals do to elevate employee experiences and help them upskill to address these skills gaps? And what does it take to create and implement an effective roadmap for workforce transformation that aligns to business drivers? You can gain the knowledge and skills to anticipate, implement and shape these transformations with RMIT Online’s 100% online Graduate Certificate of Workforce Transformation.
