The Human Resource Development Graduate Programmes Unit at the University of the West Indies’ Mona Campus transforms global organisations and societies through the development of students who are equipped with the necessary academic, research and professional skills, theoretical knowledge in organisation and in the management and development of human resources by:
-
modelling the scientist-practitioner approach in the direct application of these competencies and knowledge;
-
providing innovative solutions that enhance individual, organisational and societal capabilities;
-
supporting leaders and employees in developing a culture of exceptional service and continuous learning, and
-
empowering employees to induce a sense of equity that contributes to organisational and societal development through their awareness of being respected, challenged and valued.
The objectives of the HRD programme are to train professionals who can contribute to the strengthening of organisations both through organisational analysis and intervention and through training, team-building and effective leadership.
