The success of any company or organization rests on the commitment and imagination of the people who are its members.
Effective human resources management enables an organization to build success through people. By attracting qualified employees, developing their talents through training, fairly compensating them for their efforts and protecting their health and safety, we create organizations that are productive, innovative, and satisfying to employees. We provide our students with the knowledge and skills to effectively manage the people in an organization. Human resources management is a professional field that is growing rapidly in Canada and there are many career opportunities within this exciting field.
Offered in partnership with UNBC’s School of Business, Continuing Studies is offering a Certificate in Human Resources Management. Graduates of this certificate program will possess the knowledge and skills required to pursue and advance a career as a human resource professional. The program focuses on developing the capabilities necessary to succeed on the National Knowledge Exam administered by the British Columbia Human Resource Management professionals Association (BCHRMA) en route to becoming a Certified Human Resources Professional commonly known as the CHRP designation.
Students in this program will be working side-by-side with UNBC students
pursuing the Commerce Degree in Human Resource Management for these
third and fourth year courses. UNBC regularly uses collaborative learning for
classroom projects and students should expect to participate in group projects
with members from the Certificate as well as the degree program.
