Growing competition, changing customer requirements, and increasing globalization call for new strategic approaches. Changes have to be recognized faster and solutions implemented with more efficiency. The employees of a company responsible for these tasks are usually the ones most affected by such, often very sudden, changes. Therefore, it is necessary to create structures that are not only flexible enough to withstand the change, but also suited to enable employees to live this change and meet the diverse challenges of the future.

The focus of the Human Resource Management course is on learning organizations as well as methods and tools adequate for implementation in the participants’ businesses.

After competing the certificate course, you will be able to

  • understand the most recent developments in human resource management,

  • effectively apply the instruments of innovative human resource management,

  • purposefully and consciously take on your personal role in human resource management,

  • handle socially difficult situations with competence,

  • recognize the need for development and take specific measures to exploit the company’s potentials,

  • carefully select training programs and introduce them to your company

  • initiate change processes and monitor them adequately.

The part-time program is designed for entrepreneurs, executives, and future decision makers working in human resources and aiming to qualify for the growing demands of their profession. It is also suited for those wishing to gain advanced knowledge of how to manage employees and teams.

We would like to encourage in particular entrepreneurs and employees with personnel responsibilities in small and medium-sized businesses who have the intention to expand and professionalize their tasks.
