Program description
Learn how to manage employee planning, recruitment, compensation, training and development, health and safety, and assessment to become an expert in employee relations. Learn to lead in union contract talks, grievance handling (including mediation and arbitration), and all other employee-related legal issues such as wrongful dismissal or personal harassment.
After gaining work experience, students are well equipped to seek a graduate degree in human resource management or labour relations, as well as a career in college or university teaching or research. A legal degree with a specialisation in labour law is also an option.
Upon graduation, more and more students are deciding to earn their Chartered Professionals in Human Resources (CPHR) designation reflecting the rising level of professionalism in the field. After acquiring some needed work experience, students will be well prepared to complete a graduate degree in either human resource management or labour relations on the path to a position in senior management or to pursue a career in teaching and research at the college or university level. Earning a law degree with a specialization in labour law is also an option.
