Overview

This is a two-year (four-semester) program designed to prepare graduates to enter the growing field of human resources management, to prepare for a variety of careers in a shorter time period than having to complete an Advanced Diploma.

In just two years, students will acquire the basic skills necessary to work in the exciting field of human resources [HR]. Graduates will have a foundation of general business knowledge to help them understand how human resources contributes to organizational success. Students will then focus on specific HR functional areas, including recruitment and selection, compensation, health and safety, and more. The Business – Human Resources program will provide an optional co-op.

This program also includes courses to qualify graduates towards the academic component of the Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP) © designation from the Human Resources Professional Association and towards the CIM © designation from the Canadian Institute of Management. Additional courses are required to meet the full academic component of these professional designations.

Co-op Option

The co-op option will allow you to gain hands-on experience while you complete two co-op work terms as an employee in the field. This experience not only allows you to put classroom learning into practice but will also provide valuable contacts for your future career.

To participate in this co-op option, you must complete an application process in the second semester. If academically qualified, you may be admitted to the co-op program.

When you graduate, your diploma will highlight the co-op credential.
