Diego Ferragutti was looking for a way to take his HR career to new heights. He turned to AIHR to learn more about People Analytics. But once he enrolled, he saw that there was an even greater opportunity for him.

Flexible and comprehensive HR upskilling

Meet Diego: a dedicated HR professional with an eagle eye for progress. Being well-versed in HR, he noticed the rising value of HR analytics and decided to develop his skills in order to deliver better and faster results.

AIHR was offering exactly what Diego was looking for: a data analytics course designed specifically for HR professionals, and a flexible learning experience he could tailor to his own pace and schedule.

“The learning experience was great. It’s down to being persistent when you take self-paced courses. So I always try to set aside time to study and to make progress.”

Once he started following the People Analytics course, Diego found out that AIHR was offering more value than he’d realized.

Bringing value to the business

Within the AIHR platform, Diego spotted new opportunities to develop his skills as an HR Professional. Not only did he learn about HR Analytics and how to make impactful, data-driven decisions, but he also discovered the power of connecting HR processes, models, and activities to tangible business outcomes.

By applying his new knowledge to the challenges in his work and proactively thinking about how to contribute to his company’s success, he became an invaluable member of his team.

“It’s not always an easy task trying to link your processes with the business, but I think it’s a key factor to success as an HR professional.”

And there was still more for Diego to discover.

Fast impact thanks to templates

Armed with a new perspective on HR, Diego was ready to implement new frameworks and processes within his HR team. To hit the ground running, he took advantage of the Resource Library, a collection of readily available resources, playbooks, and tools.

With pre-existing frameworks at his fingertips, Diego no longer had to build from the ground up. This enabled him to focus on delivering faster and better results.

“With the [existing] framework you’re not going in blind: you know how to begin, what to do next, and when to finish.”

Community was key

Yet, what surprised Diego the most was the value of an engaged and global HR community and live events that provided him with current insights on pressing matters. Witnessing how HR professionals worldwide navigated local challenges and embraced global trends proved invaluable.

This helped empower Diego to foresee his company’s needs, positioning him as an HR expert and valuable business partner.

“There is that common ground and we as HR professionals have the opportunity to take advantage of it. There are a lot of changes coming, and I think that we have the opportunity to lead those changes and to help the organizations to adapt and be part of them.”

A trusted partner for your development

After enrolling with AIHR, Diego not only reached his upskilling goals, but he also found and accomplished a new goal along the way: becoming a more well-rounded HR professional, who always has the right tools and insight for any job.
