Great speaker; bad tech issues Great speaker, but very bad technical issues. The speaker's laptop had some weird intermittent technical issues throughout the two day course. Sometimes we heard him plainly, while other times his voice cut out or sounded garbled like he was talking underwater. THe speaker is very knowledgeable and provided good insights and examples. It was just a shame to have tech delays and interruptions. For a pricey course, I expected top notch from HCI. I contacted my HCI account liaison, and he was helpful during the process.

I just completed the Strategic HRBP… I just completed the Strategic HRBP course through HCI and couldn't be more pleased with the course. So many HR professionals discuss the need to be more strategic without ever detailing what that actually means. This course broke it out into very clear sections so that even the most experienced HR professional can clearly identify ways to grow and improve. I recommend this course to anyone that wants to develop into a more strategic HR business partner.

The facilitator knew her stuff The facilitator knew her stuff. I am a person who needs time to take in concepts so it was a bit hard for me to follow sometimes. I wish there was more time or maybe a cheat sheet of terms we should become familiar with before starting the class. Some persons did not have any issues grasping the concepts so it was more a personal issue. The breakout sessions were a good format. I enjoyed those.

Mark Hacker was a great host Mark Hacker was a great host, presenter, trainer. I could understand best when he gave real-life situations. I do recommend the material give more examples with full scenario outcomes (more examples of what they had come up with).

HCI SWP course I recently attended the two day on-line HCI course on Strategic Workforce Planning. I found it very valuable. The instructor Karen was very knowledgeable and the course ran at a perfect pace. There were breaks on the hour which was wonderful. The content itself was very applicable to my role and was easy to follow. I also really enjoyed the other participants in class. It was the right level of instruction and group discussion and activities. I was able to pass the exam in one try!
