You will learn to manage core HR responsibilities using ready-to-use tools such as checklists\, templates\, job descriptions\, performance evaluations\, employee handbooks\, and policies. Beyond the basics\, the course emphasizes the importance of employee engagement and a positive organizational culture. You will explore how to foster a safe\, inclusive\, and respectful workplace—one that encourages open\, ongoing communication grounded in fairness\, compassion\, civility\, accountability\, and mutual trust. \n\n\n\nThese topics offer an overview of human resources management in local government\, focusing on leadership and guidance to foster creativity and innovation. Through effective programs\, policies\, and practices\, they promote performance excellence\, diversity\, equity\, inclusion\, quality outcomes\, and legal compliance. The goal is to cultivate a workplace where employees are agile\, resilient\, and empowered to face challenges\, feel a sense of belonging\, and express their authentic selves. \n\n\n\nKey Topics: \n\n\n\n\nEmployee relations\n\n\n\nRecruitment and retention strategies\n\n\n\nPerformance management\n\n\n\nCompliance with employment law\n\n\n\nDisciplinary actions\, documentation\, and appeals\n\n\n\nProactive measures to prevent issues\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend:  Municipal supervisory and management staff\, HR Professionals\, as well as elected\, newly elected\, and appointed officials \n\n\n\nAt the end of this course\, you can expect to be able to: \n\n\n\n\nBuild and maintain positive relationships between your municipality and its employees\n\n\n\nAttract and hire qualified candidates\, as well as list strategies to retain top talent\n\n\n\nDescribe the elements of a performance management system\n\n\n\nLocate resources to ensure that all HR practices adhere to local\, state\, and federal employment laws\n\n\n\nList the procedures for addressing employee misconduct or performance issues.\n\n\n\nRecognize the importance of developing and implementing policies and practices to prevent HR-related problems before they arise\n\n\n\n\nBy registering for this course\, you are authorizing the League Learning Academy to forward information to you at your email address related to educational offerings. \n\n\n\nOnce your registration is completed\, you should receive a confirmation email from The PA Municipal League.
