About this Course
This is an Accredited Course by the Malta Further & Higher Education Authority (MFHEA), at MQF/EQF Level 5.
As organisations are becoming increasingly complex, the role of human resource management has never been more vital.
In this programme you will start to look at the relationship between employers and employees and begin making links between theory and practice, all without having to take a break from your career.
When you start the programme you will initially complete Academic Skills, which will introduce to you the study requirements of the course. Following this, your remaining seven core modules focus on the theoretical basis behind the science of Human Resource Management.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the course, the learner will be able to:
- Demonstrate how an understanding of the issues involved in HRM can assist the human resource manager in managing staff effectively.
- Compare and contrast formal and informal learning and be able to discuss the merits of each.
- Discuss how effective employee development can impact upon an organisation’s performance whilst assessing the theory and practice of management considering the importance of leadership and the HRM function.
Throughout the course you will also complete formative training in research methods and academic writing skills to support your studies. Following successful completion of the Diploma (HE) in Human Resource Management you are eligible to proceed onto our BSc in Human Resource Management.
