About the Course

The modern HR function is under immense pressure to demonstrate its value through hard data rather than anecdotal evidence. This course addresses the core challenge of the field: turning fragmented employee records into a structured system for decision-making. You will develop the capability to demonstrate five critical domain competencies: data storytelling for executive buy-in, predictive turnover modeling, recruitment funnel optimization, pay equity regression analysis, and strategic workforce alignment. By grounding our curriculum in the SHRM® Competency Model and the CIPD® Profession Map, we ensure that every analytical technique you learn is directly applicable to global professional standards. You will be introduced to advanced concepts like machine learning in talent acquisition while spending significant hands-on time practicing data cleaning, visualization, and statistical interpretation.

HR Data Analytics involves the collection, analysis, and reporting of HR data to improve individual and organizational performance. Professionals use it to identify talent gaps, reduce flight risk among high-performers, and justify HR budgets through Return on Investment (ROI) calculations. This 10-day journey is specifically designed for practitioners who must deliver results under constraints such as data silos, privacy regulations like GDPR, and varying levels of digital maturity across the organization. We move from foundational descriptive analytics to intermediate-level diagnostic and predictive techniques, ensuring you leave with a robust toolkit of templates, scripts, and frameworks that can be implemented immediately upon your return to work.

Business Results You Can Expect

How participants put this to work the week after training — and the measurable return their organisation can plan for.

How participants apply this

Participants in Costa Rica use this HR data analytics training to move beyond basic headcount and payroll reporting toward evidence-based workforce planning. They connect data from systems like payroll, time and attendance, and HCM platforms into tools such as Power BI or Tableau to monitor turnover, absenteeism, and productivity across locations. HR Business Partners apply people analytics concepts to support decisions around remote work policies, recruitment channels, and learning investments. Talent and People Operations teams also use ISO 30414-aligned metrics to better structure internal reporting for regional and global stakeholders.

Expected ROI

Within 6–12 months, organizations typically see more consistent and timely HR reporting, enabling leaders in Costa Rica to anticipate staffing gaps and adjust hiring plans earlier. Better analysis of turnover, overtime, and absenteeism often supports targeted interventions that can reduce unwanted attrition and associated replacement costs. HR teams become more credible partners to finance by quantifying the impact of initiatives such as retention bonuses, hybrid work, and training programs in financial terms. Over time, the discipline of people analytics strengthens compliance documentation and supports ESG and human capital disclosures requested by multinational headquarters and investors.
