IES HR consultancy services: leading edge HR insight and solutions

A core part of the mission of IES is to improve the practice and understanding of HR and people management issues. We help organisations in four ways:

Research, knowledge and insights

We provide access to this evidence and insights through our online knowledge base.

Training services – building HR capability

We have developed a range of Continuous Professional Development programmes for HR people that go beyond the normal HR training modules, to focus on those capabilities that really set excellent HR people apart from the rest. These are all available as in-house (organisation specific) programmes and a selection of the most popular ones are available as open (public) courses.
