Human resources professionals are responsible for human capital of an organization and help fit the skills and talents of employees to the mission of the enterprise. They must manage increasingly complex organizational, salary, and benefit systems while also recruiting, training, and managing regulatory standards.

The Human Resources Management curriculum includes seven courses (18 credits) $440 per credit. Total cost of the certificate program is $7,920.
Designed for working professionals, the certificate program can be completed in as little as 11 months with online and in-person courses to fit any scheduling needs. Courses can be taken in any order, and students can get started pursuing the certificate at any point in the year with frequent course start dates.
There are no preliminary admission requirements for the HR Management program, allowing students to make an immediate impact on their careers.
Individual courses may also benefit supervisors, managers, and consultants outside of human resources seeking greater insight into employee management. Completed coursework can also be used as a credit towards a degree at many colleges and universities.
