PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATES IN BASIC AND

ADVANCED HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

The Basic and Advanced HR Certificates are comprehensive programs which address issues of concern and relevance to those who perform human relations functions for their organizations. Courses are selected by Continuing Education through consultation with human resource management professionals, human resource consultants and business leaders. The certificates, recognizing educational achievement in the human resource management area, are awarded by the Office of Continuing Education’s Professional Development Center and the Southern Nevada Human Resource Association. Advanced courses may be taken toward the Basic Certificate requirements, but basic courses may not be used for the Advanced Certificate. Both Basic and Advanced classes are appropriate for PHR/SPHR re-certification.

CURRICULUM

To receive a Basic Certificate you must complete any four of the courses listed in

either the Basic or Advanced Course classes plus Essentials of Human Resource

Management. Six additional classes earn the Advanced Certificate.

You may enroll in individual courses without intending to complete the certificate requirements. Each course will include an assessment, which could be a short quiz, an individual or group project or a combination. A pass/fail or a grade will be reflected. The Employment Law and Nevada Employment Law classes do not have

to be taken in order; each stands alone. These employment law classes are taught from the practical application of laws in an HR setting.

INSTRUCTORS

Instructors in this program are professionals in the industry. Many hold the PHR or SPHR designations and are members of the Southern Nevada Human Resource Association. They bring to the courses a wealth of real world experience and knowledge.
