Continuous Program Improvement
MITT continuously reviews and improves programs to maintain relevance in the workplace and effective learning experiences for all students. Although the institution strives to have the website reflect the most current version of all programs, MITT reserves the right to change the program curriculum as necessary to meet industry and accreditation requirements. As a result, course information and learning outcomes may be adjusted prior to the scheduled course start date.
COVID-19 Response
Due to the challenges raised by COVID-19, MITT reserves the right to alter course delivery methods and/or program durations. Course deliveries may require increased percentages of online/distance learning components, alternatives to work practicums, and extended program durations to accommodate physical distancing and work practicum placement restrictions. MITT will be providing an exceptional level of enhanced student and program supports to ensure this modified program experience continues to meet all required learning outcomes for your program.

The Human Resources Learning and Development Post-Graduate Diploma program provides students with the knowledge, skills, and practical experience essential to a successful career in the human resources learning and development field. Students learn the principles and practices as well as the practical skills needed to work as an HR generalist or advisor or to pursue work in the field of adult training and development.
Students will begin with an overview and understanding of core HR functions that exist in today’s workplace, and then build on these concepts by focusing on the knowledge and skills specific to adult learning and development, thus being ready for a broad array of opportunities in HR and learning, training, and talent development.
