In association with:

Staff Retention and Inclusive Recruitment Programme - CMI Level 7

For many organisations, recruitment and staff retention is their number one strategic challenge. Effective recruitment and retention strategies leads to:

  • Improved performance
  • Improved resilience
  • Improved diversity
  • More aligned culture
  • Increased value

Recent developments in technology and changes in expectations of candidates are placing significant pressures on employers to reconsider their relationship with the workforce. Evidence suggests that around three quarters of professionals in the UK are planning to change jobs in the next year, and many clients are reporting difficulties in maintaining services and production in light of staffing shortages.

The Staff Retention and Inclusive Recruitment Programme - CMI Level 7 gives participants the opportunity to reflect on and improve the way their organisation manages recruitment and positively engages with the workforce. During the programme we address the strategic importance of recruitment; we consider a range of “best practice” areas including how to conduct effective interviews, and how to ensure our organisations are addressing issues of equality, diversity and inclusion within their recruitment strategy.

Through a range of theory, interactive discussion and practical application, participants will be able to confidently apply an improvement plan in an organisational context to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead.
