I noticed the courses are offered in quarter hours. 20 quarter hours equals 15 semester hours, and 25 QH equals 18 semester hours.You can work in HR with any degree. I have a master's in psychology and a master's in HR. I truly feel like networking is best if you want a job in HR. Most people I know started out by knowing someone to get their foot in the door. Plus, in HR laws are always changing. You're degree now may be useless. I graduated with my HR degree in 2024. One of my classes was a class called DEI. With the new administration that class is outdated with current laws surrounding DEI. When I was working on my HR degree I was looking at attending law school. So that is another option.
One of the post-doctoral (PD) management certificates offers a track in human resources, which, for me, may be of considerable value in the business sector. The human resources (HR) field also offers professional certifications, such as the SHRM. Experience in HR is key for the SHRM, but the PD certificate in HR, if the price is right, may lead to gainful employment in that field. Any thoughts?
