This program is amazing, and I really believe all the coursework is preparing me for my future as a Human Resource Manager on PEI. As someone from Jamaica, the rules and regulations in HR are different from Canada but the way [the program was structured] allowed me to get a comprehensive knowledge of HR practices in Canada.
