| Earn a Professional Development Certificate in Human Resources at Your Convenience
The Center for Research and Innovation is launching a new on-line professional development non-credit certificate in Human Resources Management. On-line learners can “go” to class at their convenience: lunch break, evenings or weekends. The 12-week course is designed for professionals who are new to the human resources field or human resources assistants and staff who provide technical or administrative support. The interactive design of the program will help participants build a network of resources and people that will last long after the course is completed. Additionally, the final project of the certificate program will be immediately applicable in participants’ current position: new position descriptions, a training outline, an updated job application or something else agreed upon by the instructor and learner. The online certificate program will begin January 10, 2005. Click here for more information or to register.
