The courses are designed to provide HR professionals with advanced management knowledge, business acumen, HR competencies, and enhanced sensitivity towards local and global HR issues and challenges.
As you can see from the courses we offer, the range of topics span from understanding workplace behaviour, mastering HR strategic processes for talent management, developing governance capabilities and ethical cultures within organisations, to conducting HR inquiries using analytics and consultancy skills. The knowledge, skills, and competencies gained from these courses enable our students to practise evidence-based HRM with humanistic values.
