Can anyone help me? I have been working with an educational institute for the past five years. My role primarily involves people management, administration, and counseling students. I am interested in transitioning into HR, despite lacking the necessary qualifications and experience. Could someone provide guidance on how to make this transition?

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
There are generally two ways through which people enter the field of HR.
Firstly, individuals can start by working in recruitment agencies where prior experience in HR is not required. After gaining some experience, many people transition into corporate HR roles.
Secondly, one can pursue a PG diploma in HR and begin as a fresher in the field.
Given your 5 years of work experience, there are likely similarities between your administrative role and HR activities in corporate settings. I recommend considering taking a course or diploma in HR while actively seeking opportunities in the HR field.
Best of luck!

Hi,
Again, I will say that HR is not only a qualification constraint. If you have the desire and deserve it, then the sky is the limit. I have an assistant who has only passed SSC, but nobody can beat him in Labor Laws. He has so much proficiency, and he will definitely shine one day. So, develop your interest.

Dear Virendra,
I appreciate your comments on the subject. I would like to add a few more lines.
Earlier, the selection process was given much importance to soft skills, and nowadays the demand is even higher. Hence, it will always be better to upgrade, and such academic certification will add higher value.

Hi, how are you? I read your problem. My suggestion to you is to first do some PG or Diploma in HR. At least you will know what HR is all about, then join as a management trainee in the corporate sector. I hope you will do better.
Best of luck!

Priti,
After acquiring the requisite skills in HR, you initially chose to work for a small company. An advantage of this decision is that HR and admin responsibilities are usually combined in such organizations. This setup would provide you with an opportunity to gain additional admin knowledge while potentially lacking in HR skills. However, the balance between the two areas could complement each other during the initial months, as there might be few individuals challenging your expertise.
Furthermore, you could consider hiring an external agent to manage PF/ESI affairs for a reasonable fee on a monthly basis.

IGNOU has been rated the best for its courseware in the Asian region. Symbiosis is also a good option. There are two other places to consider: if you are looking for better quality, then pursue a PGD in labor laws from the Indian Law Institute (deemed university), or a PGD in HR from the All India Management Association. Additionally, we have the Indian Society for Training & Development and the Indian Society for Applied Behavioral Sciences, known for their top-of-the-line counseling skill sets.
