Course Code
Academic Year
In this capstone course, students will apply the business and human resources knowledge and skills developed throughout the entire program to develop a comprehensive and detailed business plan for the start-up of an HR department where no formal centralized HR function exists in the company. Students will be expected to analyze the requirements drawing on their knowledge of the organization and its operations as well as their analysis of relevant and current theory and research, present their solutions and argue in favour of the recommended option. The plan and accompanying rationale should reflect a clear purpose, through research, thoughtful analysis, logically sequenced arguments and a well-justified recommendation. As part of the business plan, students groups will make a formal presentation to the Company CEO.
