Centre for Organisational Resilience and Inclusion (CORI)
CORI provides training, consultancy and research in human system design to enable organisations and communities to grow inclusion and resilience in the face of increasing diversity and adversity. Drawing from rich and multidisciplinary bodies of work, CORI offers insights into the often invisible or unnoticed forces at play in our human systems. Through our suite of offerings, CORI will empower individuals with the knowledge to accurately strategise and intervene for the work that they are a part of, be it in the workplace, community and relationships.
While the levers of resilience are often associated with finances, physical infrastructure and processes, a key determinant of resilience is social capital. With people at the heart of any successful organisational and resilience strategy, CORI aims to enable organisations to rise above crises and maintain their sustainability. We lend expertise in:
CORI's training offerings include two certificate programmes, which consists of 11 modules. These modules can be taken individually as short term courses, or collectively to form two certificates. The two certificates are:
Any working professional responsible for the leading of a human system - family, team, department, division, company or group. The curriculum is also relevant for professionals in human resources or organisational development roles.
CORI partners with the Institute of Human Resource Professionals (IHRP) to offer skills badges in emerging HR topics such as Organisational Change, HR Consulting and Future of Work Architect upon completing selected modules. These are digital badges that validate new skills earned and enable potential employers to instantly authenticate your competencies. Completing each individual module allows you to attain a Basic badge, while completing all required modules under each certificate would give you a Proficient badge. More details below!
