Human Resources Management

Human Resource Management(HRM)

The effective management of an organisation’s human resources is now recognised as a critical component in the success of public and private enterprises. Irrespective of size, the presence of well-trained and highly-motivated staff, will enable organisations to meet the fresh challenges that come from the rapidly changing business environment. The recognition of the importance of human resource management has led to a demand for trained and qualified HR professionals and to the development of a career structure rising to the highest levels of the organisation. Currently, demand for trained and qualified HR professionals is outstripping supply.

Students who complete the ABE programme will find their HRM skills and their own personal marketability within the organisation enhanced. They will also be well prepared for further study and university degrees.
