The Curriculum Architecture
Three Pillars, One Administrator
“A process without a control is a financial and legal liability. Administrators are judged on what they can substantiate and prove, not just on what tasks they performed.”
The Hire to Retire (H2R) program synthesizes the entirety of an organization's human capital workflows. Instead of treating recruitment, leave tracking, payroll calculation, labor compliance, and separations as detached subjects, H2R unifies them into a continuous, audit-defensible corporate system.
HR Operations Backbone
Manpower planning, recruitment, selection, offers, onboarding, employee administration, and engagement — the transactional backbone run on trackers, checklists, and approval matrices.
Payroll & Statutory Compliance Engine
Attendance to payslip: gross → deductions → net pay, CTC vs take-home, and the statutory layer — PF, ESI, PT, LWF, TDS, gratuity, and bonus — computed, filed, and reconciled on a calendar.
Controls & Business Understanding
Every process is paired with its risk, control, evidence, and MIS. Students master maker-checker controls, eliminate fictitious employee fraud, and reconcile HR payroll registers to finance subledgers.
Program Objectives
6 Core Career Outcomes
By completing the H2R program, participants gain complete operational and control authority over every transactional milestone in an employee's lifecycle.

Control Spine (Built Into Every Module)
Every hire starts from a sanctioned position in the manpower budget — never from an ad-hoc manager request.
Hiring without sanction; headcount and budget creep that finance discovers too late at payroll close.
Approved manpower budget and formal Manpower Requisition Form (MRF) sign-off before recruitment begins.
Approved manpower budget, organization chart, signed Manpower Requisition Form (MRF).
Manpower plan vs actual headcount; open-position ageing report.
Risk & Governance
The 5-Step Control Spine
For every operational process, students answer 5 vital questions: How does it run, how does it fail, what stops the failure, what proves it, and what reports it?
Process
The standard operational sequence — steps, owners, turnaround timelines, and outputs.
Risk
How the process breaks down in real firms — ghost workers, wrong pay, retained system access.
Control
Mechanisms that block failure — maker-checker, validation rules, reconciliation, hard deadlines.
Evidence
Artefacts auditors inspect — signed forms, approved trackers, bank receipts, challans.
MIS
Recurring reports surfacing numbers — TATs, variances, ageing, distributions, dashboards.
