:: Human Resource Management ::

The effective management of an organisation's human resources is now recognised across the world as a critical component in the success of both public and private enterprises. The recognition of the role and importance of human resource management in the workplace has led to a demand for trained and qualified professionals.

Students who complete the ABE programme will find their HRM skills and their own personal marketability within the organisation enhanced, as well as their ability to progress to a degree and higher levels of qualification.
 
ABE's new HRM programme builds on the success of the Practitioners Programme in HRM, enabling students to complete a Certificate, Diploma Part 1 and 2 and an Advanced Diploma in Human Resource Management.
 
The first worldwide examination in the Certificate and Diploma Part 1 and 2 will be held in June 2007 and in the Advanced Diploma in December 2007.
As a result of this development, the Practitioners Programme will be discontinued after June 2007.
