Graduate Certificate - Human Resources Management

A ten month Ontario College Graduate Certificate covering recruitment, compensation, labour relations, employment law, training and the nine courses required toward the CHRP designation, with a 259 hour placement.

HR management is not on Mohawk’s PGWP list. It asks for a three year diploma or a degree, and runs ten months with a seven week placement.

Mohawk College, a public Ontario college founded in 1966, delivers the human resources management graduate certificate at its Fennell campus in Hamilton. The human resources management graduate certificate does not appear on the PGWP list Mohawk published in February 2026, and IRCC has frozen the eligible list for the rest of 2026. Finishing the human resources management graduate certificate therefore does not lead to a post-graduation work permit, so plan to leave Canada or change status when your study permit ends. A provincial attestation letter from Ontario is needed before the human resources management graduate certificate can support a study permit application.

Applicants to the human resources management graduate certificate need a university degree or a three year college diploma with a minimum of 50 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for the human resources management graduate certificate is recorded at CAD 17,540. Mohawk charges a CAD 100 application fee and asks for the full first semester of tuition before it issues the acceptance and attestation letters for the human resources management graduate certificate. There are three entry windows for the human resources management graduate certificate, starting from September 2027. Apply Study Visa manages the application for the human resources management graduate certificate, the payment to Mohawk, the attestation letter and your study permit as one process.
