Your decision to study a Masters in welfare and personnel management is good to hear though I wouldn't personally recommend you doing it by distance. Any subject that involves practicals, case studies and discussions wouldn't do any good to you when studied at distance. Particularly, business and management subjects need to be sat at a business school to learn it. These subjects need a lot of case studies and discussions to offer you in depth knowledge on the subject and for this sitting in a classroom environment is very essential. When you are in a class you will be given case studies to work out, given live or real business problems to solve. You will be most often put up in groups to discuss problems and suggest solutions and this will be a rewarding experience. I hope you understand the reason I give here. When you work in groups for discussion, you will also develop those team working and team building skills that will act as essential work skills. This is why it is often said that studying Management subjects by distance is never recommendable. I would sincerely tell you to find a full time college that offers this degree. Try allocating two years to study this and I am sure you will feel satisfactorily by the end of your course.

 

Not many colleges will offer you a direct course on 'Welfare and labour management'. However you can study Masters in Human resource management instead, as welfare and labor management is part of the HRM subject itself and you will definitely study a paper or two on this subject as part of your HRM subject.
