Program overview
The Graduate Certificate - Human Resources Management (HMG1) is a 1 year program at Fanshawe College’s London campus.
The HR graduate certificate maps directly onto CHRP designation requirements: recruitment, employment law, compensation, labour relations and HR analytics in one intensive year. For degree-holders from any field, it is the fastest credential-plus-designation route into Canadian people-operations careers.
Scale is the quiet advantage here: specialised facilities, a vast alumni network and a co-op office with real employer reach, in a city thousands of dollars cheaper per year than the big metros.
The credential’s immigration footing is its field — CIP 52.1001 (Human resources management); Fanshawe’s published list is the authoritative check, and IRCC the final authority.
