The Evolving Landscape of Human Resources
The working world has changed dramatically, and the need for a degree is evident in every career field, including human resources.
As organizational expectations of the potential contributions of a human resources professional have increased, so has the need for HR leaders to possess both experience and a degree.
The Role of Human Resources in Business Success
Managers and supervisors are keys to overall business success.
Everyone understands that human resources are entrusted with sensitive business materials. They are also expected to contribute to employee retention, recruit candidates, develop the organization, and foster a positive working environment.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook:
“A master’s degree in human resources, labor relations, or business administration with a concentration in human resources management is highly recommended for those seeking general and top management positions.“
Benefits of Furthering Your Education
Furthering your education with a Master’s degree can only benefit your career long-term. Practitioners enjoy a variety of career options and can flex different strengths within their jobs.
There is diversity in the field.
