Program Overview
Advanced HR skills and training
Study human resources topics that aren’t taught in our two-year diploma program, including how to manage HR data using current Human Resources Information Systems (HRIS) software. Third-year HR courses also develop foundational skills such as learning and development, total rewards management, employment law, managing in unionized workplaces and HR planning.
Complete CHRP coursework and work towards your degree
Many employers today seek HR workers who hold a Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP) designation from the Human Resources Professionals Association (HRPA). When you complete this program, you may have fulfilled the HRPA’s CHRP coursework requirement and be eligible to take your Comprehensive Knowledge Exam 1. You may also be able to apply some credits towards our HR management degree.
Graduate with hands-on experience
Sheridan is well-known in the HR industry for producing job-ready graduates. Lectures from our expert professors are supported by case studies, simulations and group work opportunities. You can also gain real-world industry experience by participating in an optional co-op placement.
Make industry connections
Start building relationships in the human resources field while you’re still in school! You’ll have the opportunity to attend various industry network events throughout your program. Sheridan also has an extremely active Human Resources Student Association that participates in many case competitions, workshops and social events each year.

Co-op
Students enter this program in either the Co-op or non-Co-op program. Continuation in the Co-op program is conditional on maintaining the established minimum required academic standard. The program-specific academic standard required for participation in Co-op can be found here: Academic Standards for Co-op and Internship. If there are seats available, students in the non-Co-op program may have the opportunity to apply to the Co-op program at the end of first year. This would be a competitive process with limited seats available. Students in the Co-op program are eligible to complete two Co-op work terms prior to graduation.
Co-operative Education is a form of work-integrated learning that links classroom learning with paid or unpaid work experience within a professional environment. Co-op work terms are related specifically to the academic studies of each student. The work terms provide an opportunity to learn by doing. You’ll apply theory to practice, develop a meaningful view of the working world, and cultivate an awareness of yourself as a professional.
Students receive in-class and 1-on-1 career education support to help prepare for the work term. The Co-op component is delivered by Sheridan’s Co-operative Education Office, which facilitates over 1,800 Co-op/Internship work terms per year Sheridan-wide.
