The training in Human Resources Management is key to the development of nay nation. It has now been generally accepted that human resource is a major, if not the most important resource in an organization. As Kenya embarks on the industrialization process it requires individuals who may have had a chance of attaining a University degree yet they need middle level training to enable them function productively in their organizations.
This course will fill a gap in training need and will enable the University of Nairobi to contribute to the Human Resource development in Kenya. It will also enable the University of Nairobi to access its training to all deserving persons all over the country.
Other training institutions other than the University of Nairobi examine the current course of Personnel Management offered. Potential diploma students have been requesting for a diploma course offered and examined by the University of Nairobi.
