Thanks to the Human Resources program at Northern, students graduate ready to take on a leadership role in staffing, employee relations, performance management, and more.

Year One focuses on Business Fundamentals before students move on to master what it takes to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

Students get to know the legal framework of labour relations, human rights, and occupational health and safety. They learn how to support an organization’s short and long-term goals through strategic recruitment. Students will be ready for the collective bargaining process, honing their expertise with labour relations.

Along the way, students strengthen their skills in communication, information technology and tactical persuasion—and even develop an effective training program that promotes leadership and collaboration.
