Overview
Details

As part of George Brown College’s Human Resources Post Graduate Program, students are required to complete a virtual work-term as the last semester of the 12 month program. Students going into this workterm will have completed two semesters of in-class learning, and this work-term helps them to put that learning into action through practical, real-world experience.

We are looking for companies to participate in the program that have human resource initiatives they require support with. Each company will be asked to fill out a brief to inform the students of the business issue you are looking to solve. Successful companies will be assigned a team of 4 students that will work full time to research, provide options and tactics and develop a final presentation for you to utilize. A professor will be assigned to each student group to act as a coach throughout and ensure the plan is completed properly and meets the needs of your business objectives.
