Career Prospects
Graduates will have acquired the advanced knowledge and skills to function effectively as leaders and advisors in human capital management. They will have the competence in people management to take on challenging roles/positions in business and government organisations.

Programme Structure
Each of the courses in the GCHCM programme is 5 credit units (cu) and are structured sequentially.
The underlying theme is about proper alignment: the need to align human capital with business strategy. The curriculum therefore begins with a foundation course in contemporary human capital management in the new normal and moves on immediately to the course on strategy alignment and business partnering. This is followed by a context-specific course in Singapore employment law, policy and ethics.
Students have to maintain a minimum CGPA of 2.5 in their coursework as part of the fulfilment of the graduate certificate programme.
