Human Resource Management Diploma Program (Full-time)
The UWDCE Human Resource Management Diploma is the highest HR educational credential in Manitoba, outside of a Business degree. This highly-recognized academic credential complemented by its work-ready tangibles serves both, the experienced practitioner lacking formal education and University graduates with little business expertise.
Given the complexities of an evolving human resource function, the UWDCE Human Resource Management Program distinguishes its program from academic competitors by layering traditional elements of human resource management with business and communication essentials. The Human Resource Management Program aligns its knowledge outcomes with industry-recognized standards and best professional practice, earning UWDCE graduates top scores on the CHRP designation examinations.
