​Please note
With the introduction of the certification framework the requirements for the CHRL designation will be ​phased in gradually. Depending on when you complete the coursework requirement, write the exam or submit your Validation of Experience, additional requirements may apply. Please consult our comprehensive chart for the timing and implementation of the upgraded CHRL r​equirements.

Textbooks

Textbooks must be purchased separately and are not included in the course fees. Textbooks can be purchased from the publishers directly or from college or university bookstores. Instructions on how to purchase textbooks and applicable web links are provided as part of the course outline and are available when you register for the course. You will need to have purchased the required textbooks and/or reference material prior to the start of class.

Education Records

Program Entry Requirements

There is no English proficiency requirement needed to register for courses in the Online Academic Program, however, to ensure success in the courses, it is strongly recommended that course registrants have both verbal and written proficiency at the post-secondary level.

HRPA does not require prerequisite courses to be completed before registering in any of the Online Academic Program courses. Courses can be completed in any order and do not have to be completed solely at HRPA. HRPA is not a degree-granting institution and, as a result, there is no application process for entering the program. Individuals may simply register for courses as they wish and entry is subject to course availability only.

It is recommended that individuals registering for finance and managerial accounting have a basic understanding of accounting concepts to ensure success in the course.

Course withdrawal and refund policy

All requests to withdraw from a course must be sent in writing to the Office of the Registrar.
