I WANT TO DEVELOP MYSELF
Welcome to Queen's University.
You are an organizational leader with a key role to play in managing
change, aligning people with strategy, building crackerjack teams, and
facilitating a learning environment. You desperately want to resolve
conflicts and encourage more productive labour management relations.
Most important of all, you want to develop yourself as a high performing people management professional.
If that is the case, then Queen's IRC has a key role to play in your
career development. Established in 1937, the IRC trail-blazed people
management development in North America, and it remains firmly
positioned as a bridge between the academic and practitioner worlds.
We invite you to learn more about our open programs in organization
development, organization effectiveness, and labour relations. Take
programs individually or group them to earn career-building Queen's
Certificates. Visit our Knowledge Centre and review discussion papers
and articles designed with you, the practitioner, in mind. Learn more
about our Blueprint for Organizational Effectiveness. Download sample
templates.
And consider these high-value benefits of Queen's IRC that go beyond the curriculum.
- Be assured of the most relevant programs that address the real-world skills you need.
As a result of extensive continuous research and more than 70 years of
experience, we have identified the core competencies every organization
development, human resources, and labour relations practitioner needs
to be successful. Each of our programs focuses on one of these
essential skills.
- Experience utterly engaging education
Imagine the excitement of presenting a mock arbitration case before an
experienced arbitrator or assessing a company's readiness for change
using a leading-edge multimedia simulation. At Queen's IRC, we believe
in learning by doing. Boasting an impressive level of on-site coaching
support, our programs are designed to put you at the centre of the
action, where real learning takes place and take-away lessons take
root.
- Learn from knowledgeable and talented faculty
The people leading our programs are carefully chosen for their
professional experience and their ability to engage adult learners.
They are drawn from the faculty ranks at Queen's, from the offices of
top labour lawyer firms, from consultants working on the front line
with organizations going through changes, from union leaders and
captains of industry. These are people at the top of their game, eager
to help you gain an edge.
- Broaden your network of like-minded practitioners
IRC programs are intense, demanding learning experiences; we make no
apology. You will be learning as much from fellow participants as from
faculty. From such intense shared experiences are born friendships that
you will turn to for years to come.
- Enjoy value-added benefits as a Queen's IRC alum
Once you complete your first program, you enter the ranks of Queen's
IRC alumni, which entitles you to access to a password-protected
website where you can download tools and templates and ongoing access
to faculty for quick consults.
