Job Design and Evaluation Workshop
August 22-24, 2023
Bangkok, Thailand
Many organizations do not have a consistent, global approach to job design. Our comprehensive three-day workshop will help global organizations design, evaluate, and organize jobs in ways that reflect the uniquely purpose-driven work that you do.
About the Course
The world of work is continuously changing, and we see new jobs emerge every single day. As HR practitioners, can we simply assume that our organizations are continuously adapting to this rapidly changing environment? How can we make HR not just strategic but catalytic?
Let’s go back to the basics of HR: let’s start with the job.
It is important for HR practitioners to be equipped with the skills to shape their organizations and the first critical skill that will help do that is knowing how to design jobs. Ultimately, as the environment and as our own organizations shift, you will also understand how jobs evolve.
We can help you become a change-maker in your organization! Join us in the Job Design and Evaluation Workshop and be a part of dynamic discussions around how organizations can re-design jobs for the future!
Who Should Participate?
This training course is targeted to all HR practitioners seeking to strengthen their knowledge in job evaluation and establishing equivalent worth across roles in the organization through the creation of clear, impactful, and output-based job descriptions.

We do recognize that situations may arise which prevent participants from attending workshops they have registered for, but in order to ensure that we deliver high-quality workshops for our clients, we have implemented the following cancellation policy, effective since January 01, 2018.
For cancellations made up to 3 weeks (21 calendar days) before the workshop date, full credit can be carried over to a different training course within 1 year from the day cancellation was announced. (For example, if a participant registers for April 16-18 training workshop, the participant advises cancellation on March 26, workshop credit will be valid until March 25 of the following year.)
For cancellations made up to 2 weeks before the workshop date, 50% of workshop credit can be used for a future training course. Unused credit will only be valid within 1 year from the day cancellation was announced. (For example, participant registers for April 16-18 training workshop, the participant advises cancellation on April 02, 50% of workshop credit will be valid until April 01 of the following year.)
For cancellations made up to 1 week or fewer than 8 calendar days before the workshop date, paid credit will be forfeited. To avoid forfeiture of workshop credit, participants may transfer their credits to a colleague up to 5 working days prior to the actual workshop schedule.
Workshop cancellations: If the minimum number of participants is not reached or for any other reason identified by Birches Group, a workshop may be canceled. Registered participants will be informed no later than 5 weeks prior to the workshop date and may choose to credit their payment to a later workshop or to receive a refund. Credits will be valid for one year from the day cancellation was announced (ex. Workshop cancellation is announced on March 12, credits will be valid until March 11 of the following year). Refunds will not be issued if the credit used for a canceled workshop is from a prior workshop credit transfer; however, credit validity will be extended for 6 months from the workshop cancellation date (ex. credit was used to register for April 16-18 training workshop, workshop gets canceled on March 12, credit extension will be valid till September 11 of the same year).
