Comprehensive Career Guidance Discussion on HR Qualifications and Further Education Options

Dear All,

I am working as Asst. Mgr - HR and carrying 2 years of experience with me. I would like to pursue LLB to add value to my career. I perceive it will provide me an opportunity to gain exposure to labor as well as employee laws and enhance my knowledge base.

On the other hand, as I have completed an MBA in HR, I am willing to further my education by pursuing an Executive MBA in HR. Friends, please suggest to me which option will be more lucrative, as I am in a dilemma. I believe this is the time when I should concentrate more on HR, which is at the core of my career.

I would like to request seniors to also guide me on this.

Regards, Rachna:neutral:

Dear Rachna,

LLB will not only help you with Labor Laws but also provide a wide spectrum of choices. After pursuing LLB, you may become interested in pursuing Law itself (it's a beautiful subject).

If you are stuck with your decision regarding HR, I suggest you take up an MBA course with HR specialization, which includes labor laws and the factory act as subjects to specialize in.

Dear Ash,

First of all, I would like to thank you for the feedback. Moving forward, I have completed my MBA in HR, and this time, I would like to pursue further studies that complement HR well. This will help me strengthen my foothold in this competitive era.

Dear Rachna,

You should go for LLB. Have you heard of the MMH College in Ghaziabad? It is one of the best colleges across the NCR. Even I am looking to apply there this year. You have to appear for an entrance test to secure admission.

Hi Rachna,

According to me, you should go with LLB. It is better than Executive MBA-HR as you have already completed your MBA-HR.

Check out MBL, Bangalore at www.nls.ac.in. This may help you out.

LLB is good, Rachna. It's best if you wish to pursue IR. However, for HR Corporate, I would still suggest you go for some postgraduate diploma in HR Specialization. Maybe in behavioral sciences or anything else. Ever thought of a doctorate?

True, Rachna. If you have already completed an MBA, then you should consider pursuing LLB. (I did not notice that in your post that you have already done.)

But, why don't you also consider other subjects like Psychology and its application in organizations? A certification course in Psychometric testing could also be beneficial for you.

Thank you very much, Sumit, for your suggestion. I agree that behavioral science will also help in enhancement. I would appreciate it, Sumit, if you could suggest some institutes as well.

Hi Vipin,

I appreciate your early feedback on the same and intend to gain more knowledge regarding university affiliation, whether full-time or part-time. I would be grateful if you could provide all the above-mentioned information.

Hi Ash,

Trust you are doing well!

I highly commend your feedback and thanks for considering it so prominently. The suggestions provided by your team will definitely help me in moving ahead in my career.

Ash, from my perspective, nowadays companies are hiring HR professionals with a degree in law. This practice prevents them from hiring individuals from other industries for legal matters, so they prefer individuals with a blended knowledge of both subjects.

Regarding your suggestion, it is also helpful in managing people, understanding their psychology, evaluating, and addressing their concerns. This aspect will also be considered, but currently, I am focusing on prioritizing tasks to progress in my career. Could you please recommend some reputable institutes offering qualifications in psychology to add depth to our discussion?

Feel free to correct me if needed, as your suggestions are valuable to me.

Hi Vikas,

I have visited your website. The way it's been designed and flourished with HR information is tremendously fantabulous :icon1:. Vikas, in the pristine and trivial way, we require passionate people like you in the HR career.

Hi Vikas, looking for some guidance for myself too.

Good Rachna...

You have done your homework, and I guess it will be perfect to go ahead with LLB. That was a great suggestion by Vikas, and I am sure that has made even a few other people here think about opting for a new course of direction.

Hi Archana,

The course LLB is a good option. You can do LLB in Labour Laws and Companies Act. This would add good weightage to your career.

All the best.

Hi all,

Let's, as a family of CiteHR, value your thoughts and suggestions. Kindly post your suggestions.

What about if you get an assignment (better opportunity) out of India? I believe you should focus on what is widely accepted and recognized. In this liberal economy, you should focus on the future, as the world is changing so fast.

Cheers!

Hi everyone,

I am also in a similar situation. I am doing an MBA, specializing in HR from a mediocre college and in the time of recession, I don't really see good job opportunities. So, I am planning to study further, some courses that would add to my qualifications and give me a competitive edge. Please suggest courses that would inculcate or enhance skills that are in demand.

Please reply.

Thanks in advance,
Shimona

Hi Jugnu,

Well, I agree with you that once you enter the corporate world, your communication skills and attitude matter. However, for a fresher like me, before testing my communication skills, my qualifications and additional certifications would matter, right?

Hi Rachna...!! As advised by Ash, Vikas, and Vipin, I will also suggest you to go for LL.B. It will broaden your profile. Labour law diploma should also be considered. What to choose depends entirely on your interest and the time you want to spend because LL.B is a 3-year course. If you don't have much time, then many universities offer good labour law courses.

Additional courses to consider are a diploma from the Indian Society of Training & Development, Cyber Law diploma, and Diploma in Human Rights.

Regards,
Ady

Hi :razz:,

Thank you a ton for the fantabulous suggestion. Currently, I am planning to work on strengthening my skills in HR. I am endeavoring to enhance my expertise in this core area.

I will definitely look for opportunities, if any. However, my prospective and perception are leading me towards pursuing law. I would appreciate it if you could shed some light on this widely accepted field.

I intend to gather insights from senior professionals on citehr and then make a well-informed decision.

Rachna

Personally, I don't see any reason to pursue Law if you already have a master's degree in HR. You should focus on sharpening your skills and achieving excellence in those areas. In India, many prominent companies are non-Indian global companies. It's beneficial to align yourself with their requirements and the culture of global companies. These companies evaluate individuals based on communication, presentation skills, and job-related competencies.

If you are considering further studies, opt for specialized programs such as those in London or Howard. This choice will enhance your career prospects on the international stage. It's worth noting that Indian qualifications, apart from prestigious institutions like IIT and IIM, may not be widely recognized internationally. Your skills are the key to succeeding in the global arena.

All the best! Cheers!

Hi, thanks a lot for the fantastic suggestion. Currently, I am focusing on strengthening my core HR skills. I will certainly explore any opportunities that come my way. Although I am inclined towards pursuing law, I would appreciate insights on the widely accepted path.

I aim to gather opinions from senior members on citehr and make a well-informed decision.
