Overview of the Certificate in Human Resource Management

The Certificate in Human Resource Management (CHRM) is a post-baccalaureate, stand-alone certificate that requires completion of an undergraduate degree for admission consideration. Successful completion of the certificate is recorded on the academic transcript, and students are registered as undergraduate students and receive a parchment at Convocation.

Scope of the Certificate

The Certificate in Human Resource Management (CHRM) is designed for students who have completed undergraduate degrees in subjects other than human resource management or related programs such as Employment/Industrial Relations, who now wish to study courses in this field to meet professional needs, prepare for advanced studies, or simply to broaden their academic experience. The level of instruction is undergraduate.

Program Structure

CHRM is a part-time program, and the majority of students will finish the program over two academic years. Students who have been granted transfer credits and/or students who can enroll in a conflict-free course schedule may be able to enroll in a full-time course load and/or complete the program in less than two academic years. Students are advised to check course prerequisites and the timetable to determine if this is possible.

Limitations

• CHRM is a part-time program, and most students will finish the program over two academic years. Students may enroll in a full-time course load provided the schedule is conflict-free and prerequisites are met.
• Students enrolled in non-CHRM courses will be removed from those courses at any time by the Program Office and will be responsible for any tuition/ancillary associated with that course.
• Students are not permitted to take courses at UTM or UTSC. Students are not permitted to be concurrently enrolled in CHRM and another division/faculty in the same academic year.
• The courses offered in this program are from the Faculty of Arts & Science and may be available only during the day or evening in the Summer and the Fall/Winter Sessions. Not all courses may be offered every session. Please consult the timetable for course offerings. Certain groups of students in the Faculty of Arts and Science in programs other than CHRM may be given priority for enrollment into certain courses.

The Certificate in Human Resource Management will be awarded upon successful completion of five (5.0) full course equivalents with a minimum cumulative Grade Point Average of 1.85.
