About this course

Understanding Human Resources Management for your Newlane 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

This course is organized around attendance, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with each part worth 25% of the grade. That structure gives Newlane transfer students a clear transcript record for Business 306, and Newlane recognizes the completed course as Elective credit. Because Newlane is competency-based, that Elective can then be applied toward the credit you need in a degree plan there.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Human Resources Management gives you a practical view of hiring, training, pay, benefits, performance review, and employment law, which can help in many workplaces. At Newlane, the course comes in as Elective credit, so it can support programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy without forcing a major-specific requirement. For students building toward a Newlane bachelor’s degree, that elective space can help keep progress moving within the 75% transfer limit.

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 Newlane

After you complete the course, the transcript can be sent to Newlane University for review. Newlane’s registrar applies the course as Elective credit, which means it counts toward total credits and elective requirements in your degree plan rather than as a course with a more specific subject match. That can still be useful in competency-based programs, where elective credit helps you move toward completion as long as you stay within Newlane’s transfer limit of 90 credits, or 75% of the degree. For students in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, this is one way to use prior coursework without exceeding Newlane’s transfer ceiling.

Who this course is for

This course fits students who want a transferable business course that Newlane will place as Elective credit rather than a direct major requirement. It is a reasonable choice for people finishing general education, returning to school, or trying to stay within Newlane’s transfer ceiling of up to 90 credits, especially if they are working toward a program like the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. It is not the best match for someone who needs a course that maps to a specific Newlane major requirement instead of elective credit.
