About this course

Understanding Human Resources Management for your DSU credit.

What is Human Resources Management?

Human Resources Management studies how organizations hire, develop, support, and evaluate employees. It also looks at the laws, policies, and management practices that shape workplace decisions, from recruiting and interviewing to pay, benefits, and performance reviews.

How the course teaches you

Human Resources Management is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. Your grade is weighted equally across four parts: 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete the course and the transcript is issued, Dunlap-Stone University recognizes it as MGT-445 – Human Resource Management.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Knowing how organizations recruit, interview, set pay and benefits, run performance reviews, and comply with employment law is useful whether you supervise people or work alongside them. DSU recognizes this course for credit in its undergraduate degrees, including the Associate of Arts: Business Administration and the Bachelor of Business Administration, where HR knowledge sits naturally next to management coursework. It also fits the Bachelor of Arts: Psychology for students interested in how people behave at work.

Skills you walk away with

Explain the strategic role of HRM in organizationsAnalyze job roles through job analysis and job designApply recruitment and staffing methods fairly and accuratelyPlan basic training, orientation, and development programsReview performance appraisal methods and employee feedbackCompare compensation, benefits, incentive, and retirement plansRecognize the impact of employment law, unions, and equal employment opportunity

Taking this course toward DSU

After you finish, your transcript is sent to Dunlap-Stone University, and the DSU registrar applies the course as MGT-445 – Human Resource Management. Because this is a named course equivalency, the credit is recorded under that catalog code rather than as unassigned transfer credit. DSU accepts up to 90 credits (75%) in transfer, so this course counts toward that limit along with any other transferred coursework. Confirm with a DSU advisor how MGT-445 applies to your specific program, since DSU sets those degree requirements.

Who this course is for

This course suits working adults who want credit without sitting in a classroom, degree-finishers who need a few remaining credits, career changers moving toward HR or management, and students who want to keep costs under control. Because DSU recognizes it under a named equivalency as MGT-445, it counts as a specific course rather than a general elective, and it counts toward the transfer ceiling of 90 credits (75%). It is not a good match if you need live instruction, structured in-person discussion, or a course taught by DSU faculty.
