Compensation & Benefits Foundation
Total Rewards, job evaluation, pay structures, compa-ratio, market surveys and merit matrices.
What you'll get: C&B is one of HR's three pillars but is often treated as 'someone else's job'. This ~110-minute Practitioner course gives you the full foundation: the four Total Rewards layers and the three goals that always pull against each other, valuing roles through job evaluation, building pay ranges with minimum – midpoint – maximum, using compa-ratio to diagnose retention risk and pay inequity, reading market surveys by percentile, designing a merit matrix, and communicating pay without triggering a backlash.
Who is this course for?
- HR generalists who want solid C&B foundations
- People newly moving into C&B or taking on pay responsibility
- Managers who need to understand the logic behind pay decisions
After this course, you will
- Analyse a reward package across the four Total Rewards layers
- Value roles and build a pay structure with sensible ranges
