Diploma in Human Resources Management

HR stops being a department when it becomes strategy

The program is taught from two perspectives at once: the general manager's and the HR professional's. Recruitment, compensation and evaluation are treated as an integrated whole, not as separate paperwork.

For business leaders and Human Resources professionals alike.

i

A dual perspective

Topics are discussed from the employer's view and the employee's. That tension is exactly where the hard decisions get made.

ii

The five subsystems

Integration, organization, retention, development and audit of human resources, treated as a system, not as isolated functions.

iii

Theory versus real cases

Best practices are discussed using real-life situations, so the theory can be applied the following Monday.
