What HR Courses Can Enhance My Skills After Completing M.P.M. and D.L.L.&L.W.?

I have completed M.P.M. and D.L.L.&L.W. I am interested in pursuing another value-added course in HR. Can anyone suggest such courses to me, please? I am eagerly awaiting a reply.

Thank you.

Regards.

It is good to hear from you that you are interested in pursuing courses in the HR field. First of all, I would like to know more about you—what do you do, what are your qualifications, and what is your job profile? Nowadays, companies are becoming increasingly professional in terms of their roles and hiring processes.

I am pursuing an MBA in HR. Please suggest some courses for me to take after completing my MBA.

In my opinion, as of now, what you have done is enough. Maybe, I don't know your capability in the English language (spoken, written - both instantly/spontaneously) that will prove you to be a good and efficient manager. It's better to get into a job and then pursue any courses on an as-needed basis. In the meantime, develop your soft skills on various aspects. If you still insist on taking a course, you may consider studying General Psychology, which could be interesting as well as useful for your career.

I wish you all the best.

In my point of view, you shouldn't concentrate only on getting a degree. I'm not saying you shouldn't pursue further education, but also focus on gaining comprehensive knowledge. After that, you can pursue an MBA in HR, whether with a job or without a job.

Thank you.

As I said, I have completed my M.P.M. and D.L.L. & L.W. Currently, I am working in a medium-scale manufacturing unit as an HR intern. My job description involves arranging training programs, monitoring daily attendance, addressing workmen's complaints, supervising and controlling security, managing employee welfare schemes, maintaining PF registers, and I am still learning many things.

Ideal Course Suggestions

So, what would be the ideal course for me?

You can either learn SAP-HR modules or any other latest software that teaches you about the application of computers in HR operations. For payroll administration, HRA, recruitment, performance management, etc., these software domains will be highly useful. You can also upgrade yourself through certification courses/exams like CIPD or SHRM to align yourself with international standards of HR practice.

Dear all, it's indeed a valuable discussion that will help me a lot. Thank you all for your thoughts and suggestions.

It's nice to come across the discussion. Let me share my views. I too want to sign up for any such course that can add value to our professional careers. Some of our site members have suggested the following courses:

1. PG Diploma in Industrial Relations & Personnel Management (which many have opined is the best for us)
2. Diploma in Psychology.

Hi, you have to complete the Diploma in Training and Development course offered by the Indian Society of Training and Development.

I appreciate you. You have a strong interest in the HR field. You should consider studying the Diploma in Training & Development course offered by the Indian Society for Training & Development. This is a two-year course that I believe would be beneficial for you.

I think LL.B. would be the best course considering your profile and interests. I'm sure you can do it, and you should do it. It's a valuable degree that will help you significantly, regardless of where you are working or in what capacity.

Only a course can't help you get ahead in HR as it encompasses various fields like P&A and IR (DLL), Legal & IR (LLB), T&D, SAP, HR (OD, PMS, etc.), HR Analyst, and so on. Firstly, set your objectives according to your personal traits and work towards achieving your goals.

Choosing the Right HR Field

LLB, DLL, and MBA are now common degrees for HR due to current market trends. Therefore, based on personal traits, one should select a field that will make them more effective.

Hi, I appreciate your keen interest in the HR field. You should consider studying the Diploma in Training & Development course offered in distance mode by the Indian Society for Training & Development. This is a 2-year course.

All the best.

In my opinion, a diploma in Labor Law and Labor Welfare is also a good option for you after an MBA in HR.

You can study the IRPM and MLW courses as they will help in understanding industrial relations.

Seeking Advice on HR Courses

I am working in a pharmaceuticals company as an Executive in HR & Admin. In this company, I am involved in HR activities at a minor level (creating salary sheets using Excel, preparing offer letters, appointment letters, increment letters, other official correspondence, and P.F. deductions) and majorly in administrative activities (managing expenses of field staff, following up with field staff for expenses, generating reports, sales statements, and other tasks). Unfortunately, there are not many opportunities in core HR.

I am keen on staying connected to core HR. Therefore, I am preparing for the UGC exam and seeking advice on courses in HR that could enhance my current profile.

Looking forward to your valuable suggestions.

Regards.

I appreciate that you have a strong interest in practicing core HR. In the Middle East, most HR professionals are involved in visa recruitment, renewal, and cancellation, in addition to administrative functions (camp, transport, and general administration). Therefore, core HR responsibilities vary depending on the business's needs, structure, size, and type, along with the legal requirements of the specific country.

Taking UGC exams may help you pursue a teaching career in higher education institutions, which is not a required qualification for the industry. However, it is beneficial to transition to academia with industrial exposure so that you can impart practical knowledge to students.

Courses to Enhance Your HR Profile

To enhance your profile, consider pursuing one of the following courses in addition to your Master's (unaware of which postgraduate degree you currently hold):

For qualifications:

- MSW (HRM)
- MBA (HRM)
- MHRM
- MLM
- PGDHRM
- PGDPM & IR
- PGDTD (Training & Development - NIPM)
- MA/MSc (Psychology)
- LL.B/DLL & AL

All the above courses are available in both regular and distance modes. Additionally, becoming a member of HR forums/professional associations/networks can help you stay updated in the field and connect with other HR professionals.

For the sake of knowledge and qualifications, a Master's degree in HR from an accredited institution/university is sufficient; experience only adds real value!
