Retraining and upskilling your recruitment staff in 2023
Business Forums International UK
The UK’s trusted leader in HR compliance & policy training with expertise in #Immigration #IR35 #TradeUnions and more.
2022 was many things; not all pleasant and certainly not without challenges for HR. Companies are still struggling to get staff back to work, to fill positions left vacant by Brexit and Covid and to retain current staff. Recruitment and #retention are still top of the list of HR concerns, and the #costoflivingcrisis has added another dimension to an already fragile workforce.
Overstretched HR staff take on extra roles and responsibilities recruiting overseas staff
Our research has also highlighted the issue of upskilling and retraining as over-stretched staff take on extra roles and responsibilities, often feeling unsupported or with inadequate training. Over half of our delegates this year were new to a role. Changing immigration and visa directives, along with a new, frequently hostile trades union landscape has left HR professionals feeling vulnerable and unprepared for these new challenges.
"Thank you for covering topics that are so relatable to the present day and for bringing light and shade to each of them. I am now equipped with some really useful takeaways that will help our organisation become better prepared in facing these challenges as we navigate our way through this recruitment crisis/revolution".
With unparalleled access to real-time research, our immigration training courses offer brand new subjects in a range of formats
We spend a lot of time listening to our delegates, and we have responded with a series of brand-new training opportunities to meet these new challenges. With over 27 years in the business, we know how to design and deliver world-class training and the past few years have been a masterclass in translating that expertise to the virtual world. Our trainers can keep an audience engaged and learning, and we are determined to maximise the virtual training experience to meet the restrictions on travel and budget we are hearing about from our clients.
We’ve also looked at the format and length of the training courses and have introduced a new series of courses for 2023. ?These courses meet the need for the differing levels of experience and knowledge that our research highlighted, as well as providing shorter more intense courses, with lots of time built in for surgeries and to learn from more real-life examples.
