Although all resources are essential for success, people are an organization’s principal resource. How skillfully an organization develops, allocates, and supervises its human resource governs its success or failure. This Certificate provides a thorough explanation of the Human Resource Manager’s role in helping individuals, work groups, and organizations succeed. The focus of the courses is practical, and each course emphasizes the application of vital concepts so that students will acquire a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. This Certificate is useful to students who seek careers in human resource management or in other disciplines.
The Human Resource Management Certificate was jointly developed between the Department of Organizational Leadership and Supervision and the Human Resource Association of Central Indiana.
A Certificate will be presented to those who successfully complete all course work AND complete the required paperwork including a Certificate Student Information Sheet and Certificate Graduation Application – students earning other degrees at IUPUI must complete a dual-degree form as well.
