Successful HR professionals are business strategists, coaches and mentors who have exceptional people skills and a passion for working with others. As part of this degree, you'll develop the skills and knowledge to manage people in order to achieve positive outcomes. From recruitment, training and development, and workforce planning to work health and safety, and employee performance management, you'll explore all facets of HR.

While it’s important to have a broad understanding of core HR areas, employers look for people who can think of the bigger picture too. In this degree, you'll learn strategic HR management where you'll explore the importance of aligning HR plans with organisational objectives - a priority for organisations who wish to gain an advantage in today's competitive business landscape.

What you'll learn

The degree starts with core courses in business theory. These will give you a solid grasp of business fundamentals such as international business, economics and accounting and intelligence.

In your Human Resource Management specialisation you’ll focus on people management - recruitment, training, performance and retention. You’ll develop technical, analytical and practical skills in areas such as:

• recruitment and selection
• performance management
• employee compensation
• job design and analysis
• workplace health and safety
• industrial relations

Study hours

Studying 100% online means you can engage with course materials at your own pace, whenever it suits you - there is no need to be online at a particular time. It’s flexible around your life so you can control your study schedule week by week. As a general rule, we recommend 10 to 15 hours of study a week for each course.

Your career

It’s an exciting time to join the HR industry. As a HR professional, you’ll play a crucial role in bringing innovation and achieving business objectives. HR is an extremely rewarding career for people who enjoy seeing the impact they’ve made on the success of the business, and on the lives of the people within it.

There are a diverse range of opportunities found across all sectors, mainly in medium-to-large companies including banks, retail, construction to not-for-profits and government departments. Many organisations also choose to outsource their HR processes, making recruitment consultancies another source of employment.
