Human Resources (HR) is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by technological advancements that are reshaping how organizations work.

It equips HR professionals with the ability to evaluate, implement, and manage AI tools while considering ethical, cultural, and organizational factors. This credential demonstrates your technological comfort capability and positions you as a forward-thinking leader in the HR field.

Why Earn a Digital Badge?
Digital badges are credentials that you can quickly earn to demonstrate you’ve mastered a skillset in a given area. Badges are recognized by educators and employers, and serve to visually represent your skills and accomplishments in a particular topic.
Once you’ve completed the badge requirements (two graduate courses at University College), you can display your badge on your resume and LinkedIn to communicate that you’ve added this marketable skillset to your strategic toolkit.
You can apply these same course credits toward a graduate certificate or master’s degree in HR.
