HR teams are being asked to do more than ever before, while headcount, budgets, and human capacity remain fixed. The result is an HR function stretched thin by administrative work, rising expectations, and constant firefighting. The AI for HR Professional Certificate is designed to help HR professionals break out of this reactive cycle and build a more scalable, strategic way of working.
