    • Mary Grace Gusman

      I really liked this HR course! The tutors were well prepared and the sessions were very interesting and informative. The knowledge acquired from this course has helped me to grow my skills and do my current job better than ever. The topics covered have also helped me understand better the parameters of employment law and the repercussions that certain decisions may have on it. I would recommend this course not only to those who are working in the HR departments, but also to all those who are responsible of overheads such as managers, general managers, etc.
