dedication to seamlessly integrating practical learning into academic programs, empowering
learners to become leaders in their fields, while fostering innovation and excellence.”

The SHRM recognition will provide the University’s learners with a unique opportunity to

relentlessly strive towards important SHRM certifications, such SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP.
HBMSU’s recognition will enable certified professionals to meet the mandatory Professional
Development Courses (PDC) requirement every two to three years by enrolling in HRM courses

offered by the University’s MHRM and/or BBHRM programs. The University further has the
power to grant PDCs for individual HR 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.
