01.
Real and practical objectives
The contents are taught by professional experts specialized in resource management, personnel selection, talent management, and human capital, etc. which guarantee a faithful approximation to the working reality of the moment.
02.
Case studies
You will acquire knowledge and skills in a practical way, studying, analysing and debating practical cases of management in real companies.
03.
Learning techniques
You will learn with innovative methodologies, such as the contrast of ideas, simulations, role-playing games, work presentations, etc.
04.
Personalized support
We will assign you a mentor according to the characteristics of your project. The mentor acts as a guide and challenges your thinking and ideas, in a way that helps you identify reference teachers, projects, companies, and activities with which to contrast and enrich your project.
Evaluation
In order to pass the Postgraduate Course in Human Resources Management and Labour Relations, you must successfully present the established work in front of the Program Management and the other participants. In addition, there will be continuous evaluation through questionnaires at the end of the subjects that allows the learning progress of the participants to be checked.
As it is an on-campus or live program, a minimum attendance of 80% of the total established teaching time is mandatory.
The program includes an individual project that is worked on throughout the course. The project:
- must respond to a professional challenge connected to reality. It can address any problem, opportunity or initiative that is of interest to the student
- connects the theory learned in class with professional practice
- constitutes an opportunity for interaction, debate, contrast of ideas, and peer learning.
Tools
The On-Campus&Live methodology allows you to follow the program in person and also remotely.
In this modality, two stable subgroups are opened that will coexist throughout the course: one face-to-face and the other with 100% remote students. The remote students (a maximum of 15 places per course) will follow the program in a synchronous way with the face-to-face students. That is, they will share the same school calendar and schedule as the face-to-face students.
Project-oriented learning and the combination of lectures and active methodologies such as case studies, flipped learning, solving real problems, and professional simulations allow the student to connect theory and practice, acquire advanced skills, and achieve learning which is transferable to the job. The face-to-face modality is enriched with elements of online programs (virtual learning environment, multimedia resources, among others) so that the learning experience of the two subgroups is equally satisfactory.
You will have:
- Master's or postgraduate work to learn by doing
- A personal mentor to monitor your Master's Final Project (TFM) or Postgraduate Final Project (TFP)
- Digital resources to achieve transversal skills
- Interdisciplinary activities and workshops
- Digital resources and audiovisual blocks for online learning
- Active methodologies for transferable learning
