Welcome to Human Resources Development Course 11. This Study manual is not a textbook; and should therefore be read together with the recommended textbooks. At the commencement of each Unit, students will find a list of objectives which outline the main points they should understand after completion of each unit with its accompanying sections.
READING: Students may encounter self-assessment questions which will test their understanding and give them an opportunity to apply what they have learnt. They should refer to recommended textbooks when attempting to answer these questions.
