The HR Profession Map

For you. For your organisation.
 

Overview

Our HR Profession Map sets out what HR practitioners need to know, do and deliver at all stages in their career, be they specialists or generalists, working in the UK or internationally. It sets the benchmark for HR excellence - both for the individual and the HR function.

The Map is firmly rooted in the real world having been created with HR practitioners drawn from every size of organisation and across every sector. Structured around the ten professional areas of HR activity it focuses on the knowledge, activities and behaviours required in the profession today and in the future.

It provides you with the means to drive your own career and professional goals and underpins all we provide from our qualifications and membership through to our in-house training provision.
