"Venturing into the realm of adult education through the Human Resources Graduate Certificate Program has been an enriching experience. It's armed me with key insights that I now use as a recruiter, enhancing my capability to identify and nurture the right talents. This experience has truly made me appreciate the power of lifelong learning."
Our program fosters a workforce that not only represents the increasingly diverse college population, but also more prepares graduates to work in an increasingly diverse professional setting.
