Recommendation: Free Online Courses

04 August, 2012 - Singapore: For the last 2 weeks, I have been burning "midnight oil" ... studying online on various courses (e.g., HRM, Legal Studies, Growth Strategies for Business, Behavioral Base Safety (aka BBS), etc.). All the studies thanks to this website sponsored by ALISON (based in Ireland).

You should give it a try ... as they say in Singapore, "You need to periodically up-grade / up-date yourself ... to be competitive"

For those HR professionals who wish to have additional knowledge on this topic, you may want to visit the following website:
