تفاصيل الدورة

The new economy is more dynamic than ever before. In such an environment, the need to manage and develop human resources for the purpose  of driving innovation and productivity and garnering an ability to manage a high quality work life has become increasingly strategic to organisational success.

Much of the task of optimising the contribution of human resources has been entrusted to human resource professionals and all other managers who need to work with people in the organisation. These professionals and managers face the challenge of designing training, reward, selection and industrial relations systems that are appropriate for the new economy of the 21st century.

The main aims of the Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management (GDHRM) are to:

• Provide professionals with relevant skills and practical knowledge to equip them for the human resource development and management roles that their employment demands; and
• Enable graduates and managers to acquire specialised knowledge in employee recruitment and selection, training and development, knowledge management and performance management.

On completion of the GDHRM, graduates will typically be able to:

• Lead and facilitate the activities of the human resource function and manage the challenges of people management;
• Plan and utilise organisational human resources effectively;
• Practice effective recruitment and selection;
• Design and manage an effective performance-reward system;
• Build effective teams and facilitate innovation and organisational change;
• Facilitate proactive and sound tripartite industrial relations;
• Facilitate the development and investment of human resources;
• Support the management of human resources across borders; and
• Appreciate the implications of human resource management decisions.

There are many employment opportunities in the private and public sectors for Graduate Diploma graduates. The programme helps graduates to acquire business “know-how” when moving up to supervisory or managerial positions. It is also a good training route when these graduates switch to functional areas like human resource.

The Graduate Diploma will be post-experience in nature, problem-centred and practical-oriented without compromising on academic rigour. They are also a popular alternative to a Master’s programme as this Graduate Diploma can provide a more focused curricula thus reducing the  commitment in terms of cost and time for the students.
