Our Second-level Short Specialisation Degree in Evaluation and Development of Human Resources aims at training professionals in the leadership and management of human resources, so that they have the skills necessary to take action, both with individuals and organizations, in their evaluation and development, in a perspective of organizational efficiency/effectiveness, risk prevention, and the protection of health and safety, in terms of psychological, legal-economic, medical, and ethical-deontological principles.
The individual has in fact a key role in production and must therefore be the main subject of care on the part of the organization, so that they feel protected and appreciated. This line of action, together with the most recent European and Italian regulations, determines a more and more complex structure of professional spaces in the field of human resources.
Our Second-level Short Specialisation Degree in Evaluation and Development of Human Resources aims at increasing the knowledge and experience acquired during the students’ academic and professional life, while turning them into specific professional competencies which will prove useful on the job for any position involving the leadership, management, and development of human resources, HR departments, evaluation and development, work-related risk prevention, and the protection of health and safety.
With our Second-level Short Specialisation Degree in Evaluation and Development of Human Resources, students will have the chance to find employment in public, private, productive, and service organizations, as well as profit and nonprofit companies, and hold positions of responsibility within high-profile collaborations, or as freelancers.
