Hello


Good to hear you have decided human resources to be your career. May I know what are your current educational/work status? Have you done any undergraduate course? Have you been working so far or for how many years, and most particularly are you working in the field of human resources? Konwing more about each of these questions would ideally help me to advice you more appropriately. However I shall try to generalize my answer considering you are working in an entry level HR role within a company.

There are four ways to enhance your career within the field of human resources and I shall describe on them one by one in here.
1. Full time education at Masters level:
I assume you should have at least completed your bachelors degree. If this is the case, you may consider doing a two year master of science course in human resource management. The following are the top institutions across India that offers MSc Human resource management.

IIT Kharagpur, Jamia Millia Islamia, Tata institute of social sciences, Madras school of social work, LIBA Chennai, St Xaviers college of arts and science, Sophia college, SNDT Womens university Mumbai, University of Delhi, Uni of Calcutta, Uni of Pune, Uni of Madras.

2. Full time education at professional course level:
In case you have done your bachelors degree, and even have had a few years of work experience in HR, you may be well suitable to do a professional degree like the MBA with HR course. Studying MBA with HR by fulltime is generally advisable than doing it by distance mode. The following institutions offer MBA HR and are one of the top ones.
IIM Calcutta, IIM Bangalore, IIM Ahmedabad, Isb Hyderabad, IIM Ranchi, IIM Indore, IIM Lucknow, IIM Khozhikode, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Bombay, IIT Roorkee, IIT Delhi, XLRI, Welingkar institute of management, Symbiosis, SP Jain institute of management, MDI Gurgoan and IMT Ghaziabad.

3. Executive education in human resources:
In case you are working and cannot quit work, and are looking for a part time MBA/ PGDM course then doing the executive MBA/ PGDM HRM are very good options. There are plenty of institutes across India that offers part time executive programs for working professionals but please remember admission into these programs requires a minimum of 1-2 years of work experience depending on the university you will join. IIM Calcutta, IIIM Khozhikode and XLRI are well known for tehir part time executive programs in HRM for working professionals.

If you have gained at least considerable years of work experience, then you may do professional certifications with teh CIPD or like the certification in sourcing/ recruitment and many more. Hope this helps. Good luck.
