Overview

Business Administration Diploma - Human Resources Major

The focus of the Human Resource Major is on aligning the workforce with the strategic direction of the organization.

The program includes an introduction to the function of human resources, an in-depth learning on recruitment and selection, compensation and benefits, occupational health and safety, employment law, and labour relations.

Graduates from this program are eligible to receive exemption for the National Knowledge Exam (NKE) as part of the process in receiving a Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR) designation.
