Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) July 11, 2007 -- Drexel University Online, a pioneer in Internet-based education programs, has recently launched the new Master of Science in Human Resource Development degree program.

The new online Master's in Human Resource Development program will prepare graduates to become "strategic partners" to CEOs - or CEOs themselves. Using current research, best practices, software applications and database management systems, students will learn how to promote maximum employee performance in any organization.

The Master of Science in Human Resource Development program is ideal for career changers, managers and executives who want to better develop their employees, and anyone involved in assessing and responding to the development needs of employees and their organization.

Similar to Drexel's other online degree programs, this fully-accredited online master's degree in human resource development is offered entirely online, and is intended for working professionals. Students will have 24/7 online access to class materials, group discussion, instructor feedback and exams.

"We're very proud to offer our students the outstanding Drexel curriculum within this convenient online format. All of our online programs, including our master of science in human resource development, are taught by the same world-renowned faculty as our on-campus courses," said Dr. Kenneth Hartman, academic director for Drexel University Online.
