Aspiring to HR
I just completed a public training for a core module in the WSQ HR Framework ie Measuring HR Effectiveness.
Some of the participants have been in previous modules with me as they pursued their WSQ Professional Diploma in Human Resources (10 modules in all - in a combination of core and elective modules) http://app2.wda.gov.sg/wsq/contents/contents.aspx?contid=975&Pg=2
One participant stood out for me.
As part of her upskilling, interest and aspirations, she decided to take up this WSQ HR Prof Dip on her own accord (self-funded - still a sizable investment inspite of government subsidies for these programs) and in fact wanted to quit her job in Student Affairs so that she had the time to do these 10 modules progressively over the last year or so.
But her employer (to their credit), asked her to stay on and offered to let her take no-pay leave for the additional days required for classes, in an effort to retain her. And to engage her in her aspirations, has begun to transition her from her previous role into their Human Resources function.
Personal aspiration and determination, management & organisational support, the WSQ Framework and the CET eco-system, all working in tandem, to make it happen for her in her new career path in HR.
All the best SL!
