Human Resources Management Program |
|
The Human Resources Management Certificate Program provides the knowledge and practical skills for human resources administration and management. Rapidly changing workplace initiatives, legal landscapes, and workplace culture are an integral part of the human resources function. Whether you are a full-time HR professional or someone who has “the accidental” responsibility for human resources, the responsibilities are the same.
The program consists of five sessions that are each three hours in length. The content is based on the essential knowledge and expertise identified by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). All of the sessions feature a high degree of participant interaction, hands-on activities, and tools and resources that can immediately be applied back at work. The program is designed as a series so that post-program support can be shared among participants on an on-going basis.
