This course, aimed at HR professionals, is designed to promote age diversity in the American economy by highlighting the business advantages of hiring a multigenerational workforce. The course provides practical and strategic guidance for recruiting and retaining workers across the age spectrum. It draws on a wealth of research and analysis conducted by AARP over the years, which HR professionals will find valuable as they seek to include age in their Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion strategies; design age-inclusive compensation and benefits programs; tailor training and professional development opportunities for a multigenerational workforce; and develop strategies to promote knowledge transfer by presenting older workers with alternatives to traditional retirement.
