LEARNING PROCESS:

Experiential learning

Through this in-depth program, you will get a blend of theory and hands-on practical experience that goes beyond the classroom:

• Expert faculty teach students to anticipate what’s coming next in training and development, occupational health and safety, benefits and compensation, as well as work-life balance.
• Projects emphasize learning by doing, such as performing a health and safety audit for a real-world organization.
• Learn about current issues and trends from guest speakers working in the field.
• Interaction with faculty and other post-grad students coming from university, college and workplace backgrounds helps prepare students to appreciate different perspectives.
• Students earn field experience one day a week throughout the semester where they apply theoretical and practical knowledge in a workplace setting and make valuable industry contacts.
