Task details: HRMG 201 Human Resource Development
The Head of People and Culture at “Your Organisation” has asked you to prepare a report on the quality and effectiveness the training and development provided by HRM. In preparation of this report, you have attended all of the learning activities conducted by HRM over a 2 months period (by student teams for assignment 2).
Your report is to be a business focused document outlining the importance of human resource development (HRD) and its contribution to organisational strategy. The document is to provide an evaluation of two learning activities, incorporate suggestions for improvement and recommend changes.
Choose two learning activities presented by other student teams for Assignment 2. Please note that you may NOT use the topic that your group addressed in its presentation as the basis of discussion and analysis.
You are to evaluate the learning activities and their impact on the participants and suggest, using relevant theories and models how they might be improved next time.
Analysis
Based on your learnings and peer feedback, summarise and analyse your own learnings and what you believe the learnings have been for other presenters and participants.
Using and citing theory, models and research, you need to
• analyse strengths and weaknesses of the learning activities
• identify suggested changes to improve quality and effectiveness
• discuss the implications of implementing the changes e.g. time, cost

Appendices
Reference List - This Unit requires you to use Harvard Referencing.
Explanation of what needs to be done:
Implementation of the group presentations: Choose any 2 learning activities by 2 other groups. The document is to provide an evaluation of two learning activities, incorporate suggestions for improvement and recommend changes.
Group 1 - Topic: Onboarding leadership & succession planning:
Group 2:
Topic -What is diversity
Please invent 1 lacking learning activity on each group. The two group (bearing in mind that this assessment is followed by in class group presentation ) The two topics above are the topics I chose. Each group should be treated as a company therefore any name can be invented.
