Welcome to Human
Resources Development (HRD). The role of Human Resources Development is to
enable the achievement of the University of KwaZulu-Natal strategy through
targeted and effectives programmes aimed at the development and performance of
individual employees and the institution as whole. HRD is a centre of
excellence of HR Strategic and Organisational Development programmes aimed at
positioning the University Of KwaZulu-Natal as an Institution of Choice for
employees. We constantly strive for excellence in all programmes and systems in
the drive to achieve the HR People Strategy. HRD also plays an advisory and
consultancy role to senior management i.e. Executive members, Vice Chancellor,
Deans & Directors in terms of people and organisational development
processes.
The Human Resources
Development Department drives programmes that are aimed at the Attraction, Retention & Engagement and Development
of talent (all employees). Our programmes are delivered in three modes: 1) Through
College/ Divisional HR; 2) Directly through HRD; 3) Collaboration with HR
Rewards Services.
The programmes driven by

HRD creates
collaborations with the University Teaching & Learning office (UTLO); the
Research office (RO), Extended Learning and Senior Academics in the design and delivery
of programmes e.g. the UEIP, Research Induction and Academic Promotions. HRD
will always endeavour to ensure extensive consultation with all stakeholders in
the design and implementation of any new or change in process or programme as
