Human Resource Cert or Master's Degree

Human Resource Cert or Master's Degree...?
I want to take courses to earn a certificate in Human Resources because it's less time and money. Also, I already have a B.A. in Psychology. My husband thinks I'm "half-assing" it and thinks that if I go back to school I should get my Master's. Do you think he's right? Am I "half-assing" it?

I'm not sure which country you're in, but in the UK if you want to get on in HR, you need membership of the CIPD. To get this you need to do both the Certificate and Diploma in HR. I've worked in HR for 9 years now, and it is becoming increasingly necessary for HR staff to have this underpinning knowledge. I wouldn't advise anyone to jump into the masters level in HR without doing the Certificate or Diploma. You need the background knowledge, and work experience to succeed.

Your husband is absolutely right! You should definitely get your Master's Degree! That would be the best thing to do! Getting a certification might be less time, money, work, and the lazy way to do it, but ultimately, is it worth it? No. With a Master's, you could: 1. Say you have your Master's. 2. Have the opportunity to make: a lot more money, more raises, more bonuses, better benefits, etc.! 3. Feel great for what you have accomplished! 4. Change your career if you wanted/needed to! 5. Get offered a wide variety of great jobs! The point is....get your Master's!!! See, you married your husband for a reason, a very good reason.

I am a Director of HR, I have a BA and a Certificate. I know people with MBA's and Masters and they are no better off than I am career wise. Education is always of value, but when it comes to HR, my opionion is that it was the on the job training and experience that has been the most valuable.

There will be three types: the general education classes that everyone takes, such as math, English, and history, the general business classes you will need, such as marketing and accounting, and the courses specific to Human Resources. These may include things like Compensation & Benefits, Training and Development, Employment Law, and the like.

I finished my degree in HR and Business Administration in December 2007 and wanted the exact thing you did. I passed the PHR exam and everything. Reality was that the only jobs HR wanted to hire me for were 8 dollar an hour entry level jobs. I had no problem with entry level, but the 8 bucks was pathetic. If you really want to go global, you need to study and pass the GPHR exam. Info is available at www.hrci.org Good luck!
