HRM By Distance
You can complete the entire HRM Program by distance or combine distance, face-to-face and/or blended format courses. There are three twelve-week distance terms: January-April, May-August and September- December. Distance courses usually include an online component using an online learning management system (LMS). The University of Manitoba will be changing their LMS from WebCT to ANGEL Learning as of the fall 2008 term. Online components may range from e-mail assignment submission to online discussion groups; this may vary from course-to-course.
For delivery in Canada, you can order textbooks from the Book Store online. See Textbooks for a list of textbooks and how to order online.
Your course manual will be sent to you by surface mail with Canada Post. If you live outside Canada or prefer to receive it by courier, you are responsible for the courier costs. Note: Course manuals will only be available on-line starting 2009-2010.
In HRM distance courses, assignments are the method of evaluation. Most courses average 3-4 assignments. There are no exams.
In most courses, assignments can be submitted directly to the course website, faxed to 474-7661 or mail in to the Student Registration & Records office.
The instructor assigned to the course is available to answer your questions, will mark your assignments, provide feedback on them and return them to you.
