  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MA: 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time

Course Description

Successfully complete the Human Resource Management master’s course and you’ll receive a CIPD Advanced Level 7 Associate Membership Certificate. This will allow you to apply for an upgrade to Chartered Membership or Chartered Fellowship depending on your professional experience. Whether you want to enter junior human resources roles or progress onto more senior roles, this MA will equip you with the skills and knowledge to do so.

You’ll examine the theories of human resource (HR) strategy and practice, covering issues around employee engagement, talent management, and employment law. This will be applied to all business sizes, from entrepreneurial start-ups to large multinational companies.

Your analytical and critical thinking skills will be developed so you can use the theories to solve practical “real life” HR issues in your workplace. We’ll also help you improve your research skills so you can put together a scientific research report. This report will address the HR issues facing your organisation and how you could tackle them.
