Earn New Human Resource Certificate at Oakton
Designed for experienced human resource professionals, as well as those interested in a possible HR career, Oakton Community College announces the availability of a new Human Resource Specialist Certificate. Now, HR professionals have an easy and cost-effective way to update their skills - especially vital since last October's deadline for compliance of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
This flexible certificate program allows participants to customize course work to meet their current job needs. Classes are offered at the Des Plaines campus, 1600 E. Golf Road:
