While it doesn't cover the depths of human resource management theory, the book is rich with examples and engages students through application.This first edition takes on a different approach than the hardback text by the same team. Instead of a higher level of theory that's geared towards the HRM professional, this book focuses on the uses of human resources for the general population. Issues such as strategy are reduced to give a greater focus on how human resources is used in the every day work environment.Much like this author team's first project, Fundamentals of Human Resource Management provides instructors with a robust ancillary package. A comprehensive instructor's manual, test bank, PowerPoint presentation and a complete Online Learning Center make course preparation easy.

Autonomous Learning in the Workplace
Traditionally, organizations and researchers have focused on learning that occurs through formal training and development programs. However, the realities of today’s workplace suggest that it is difficult, if not impossible, for organizations to rely mainly on formal programs for developing human capital. This volume offers a broad-based treatment of autonomous learning to advance our understanding of learner-driven approaches and how organizations can support them. Contributors in industrial/organizational psychology, management, education, and entrepreneurship bring theoretical perspectives to help us understand autonomous learning and its consequences for individuals and organizations. Chapters consider informal learning, self-directed learning, learning from job challenges, mentoring, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), organizational communities of practice, self-regulation, the role of feedback and errors, and how to capture value from autonomous learning. This book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and practitioners in psychology, management, training and development, and educational psychology.
Human Resource Management
Steen/Noe Fifth Canadian Edition has been written to make HR more accessible to students, more reflective of their situation, and more about them. Today, every manager is "in HR", and every employee is actively engaged in the process of HRM, regardless of whether they aspire to be a manager or an HR professional. Students will experience HRM every day of their working lives, from how they are perceived by recruiters to completing a performance appraisal, to being promoted or fired. When students ask "What's In It For Me?", the Fifth Canadian Edition will show them just how relevant HRM is to them as people, employees and eventually managers. This easy to read and relevant 11 chapter human resource management text is ideal for a one-semester course. Steen/Noe balances theory with practical application and rich examples that support the need for foundational HRM, thought leadership and applied insight necessary to perform and thrive in organizations today.

Improving Training Effectiveness in Work Organizations
This compelling volume presents the work of innovative researchers dealing with current issues in training and training effectiveness in work organizations. Each chapter provides an integrative summary of a research area with the goal of developing a specific research agenda that will not only stimulate thinking in the training field but also direct future research. By concentrating on new ideas and critical methodological and measurement issues rather than summarizing existing literature, the volume offers definitive suggestions for advancing the effectiveness of the training field. Its chapters focus on emerging issues in training that have important implications for improving both training design and efficacy. They discuss various levels of analysis-- intra-individual, inter-individual, team, and organizational issues--and the factors relevant to achieving a better understanding of training effectiveness from these different perspectives. This type of coverage provides a theoretically driven scientist/practitioner orientation to the book.
