courses concurrently: Recruiting and Retaining a Talented Workforce, Navigating the Confusing Waters of Employment Law, Compensation Basics, and Benefits I: Understanding the Challenging World of Benefits. HR Case Studies: Pulling it all Together should be taken as your last core class.

above. Other than these prerequisites, courses and electives may be taken in any
desired sequence.
