programs without requiring prior approval from SHRM.

Prof. Rock-Antoine Mehanna, Dean of HBMSU’s SBQM said: “We are honoured to be recognised by

the SHRM, which demonstrates a remarkable milestone for the HBMSU’s School of Business and
Quality Management. We are pleased to have gained the recognition and confidence of a highly

esteemed international organisation such as SHRM. This accomplishment reaffirms our commitment

to providing academically advanced programs that are carefully designed to satisfy industry demands
and requirements. It highlights our dedication to providing learners with the requisite knowledge and

abilities to achieve rewarding and successful careers in human resource management.”

The recognition is in line with the University's Strategic Direction, which focuses on integrating skill-
based learning into its academic programs. The primary objectives of this strategic direction for 2023

include the redesign of academic programs to incorporate skill development and acquisition across all

disciplines, the use of performance-based evaluation to assess learners' acquisition of skills and
competencies, and the restructuring of academic programs to entail the development of applied

research skills across all disciplines.
