This qualification is undergraduate level and intended for those who seek to develop a career in HR management or who are working in the field of HR management and need to extend their knowledge and skills.

The course will run on two evenings per week, 6pm - 9pm.

A range of assessment methods will be used such as assignments, group work, timed assessments, role play, assignments and case studies.
