About the Course

Whether you're writing paychecks or wondering where yours comes from, this course is for you! We begin by asking: "To succeed, what kind of a person does your organization need to attract, retain, and motivate?" From there, we'll explain how to align your organization's objectives, its pay philosophy, and ultimately the way it designs and implements its salary structure, short-term incentives, long-term incentives, and benefits. Interested in learning more about the technical aspects of compensation, but don't know where to begin? We'll give an overview of key the key technical skills: compliance with pay regulations, understanding stock options, shopping for health insurance and pension providers, and designing incentive plans. Lastly, we'll discuss non-monetary methods of motivating employees. Upon completing the course, you should be able to have an understanding of compensation both strategically and technically. Learners will also gain introductory familiarity with pay regulation in the US....

This is a very useful course for any HR professional who wants to have an overview on Employee Compensation and Benefits. Thanks for detailed and thought- through lectures and the great opportunity.

Both the professors were amazing! However, I would like to point out that since everyone undertaking this course is from the USA, it's better to skip out on the portion about US Law and compliance.

The most useful parts were salary benchmarking and explanation of stock options. I think there could be more details on how these small parts expand into

Good course for newcomers in the profession. But some topics are actually only for US specialists, but you need to learn them to finish the course.

I did learn more from the last module of the course, non-monetary rewards. I believe that it happened because it had a greater mentor.

The compliance part should be customised a bit, or maybe not be graded as different countries has different compliance rules.

Very good and useful course, especially for those who is working in US, since the course mentions mostly the Law in US.

Generally very informative- however mostly tailored for US laws and practices. Thus perhaps not as practical for Europe
