This learning opportunity is about traditional and new types of compensation, reward systems, labor costs, benefits, and administration. Current business issues and trends will be used to expand and integrate the textbook’s perspective. Ultimately, this course is designed to facilitate learning and application about today’s compensation practices used by compensation analysts into your overall educational experience. If you are interested in human resources, management, or motivation, then this is the learning opportunity for you. This is will not be an experience where you enter, sit, listen, and leave. This opportunity will be interactive, mobile, and thought provoking. You will have several hands-on experiences that solidify your understanding about implementing, administering, and evaluating compensation systems used in organizations. You will be working for your entire future. In fact, you are working now whether you are receiving money or not. What you learn will be relevant regardless of whether you become a compensation analyst or not simply because you are a working individual.
