STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT - THE ROLE OF HR In today’s intensely competitive and changing global marketplace, sustaining a competitive advantage imposes a hefty premium on having a highly committed and competent workforce. As business conditions shift, HR practitioners are becoming strategic partners in business operations, playing proactive roles, rather than serving as passive administrators. Strategic HR means accepting a role as a partner in the formulation of the company’s strategies, as well as in the implementation of those defined strategies through HR activities. This session will include value-added tools that can be immediately put to use by HR practitioners. .6 CEU Approved for 6 recertification credits.

DEMONSTRATING HR VALUE THROUGH THE USE OF EFFECTIVE HR METRICS™ In today’s global market human talent constitutes the biggest asset of any organization. Hence, the efficiency level of an organization fundamentally depends on its human capital management (HCM). Comprehensive human resource measurement strategies enable management to collect consistent information about the employee population, which aids decision-making and ensures that management and development activities align with overall business strategy. With a sound HR metrics program, HR management can make business decisions that are based on cold facts rather than a “gut feeling,” and use the exact figures to back up business decisions and support requests for human talent. This class will cover the fundamentals of HR metrics and assist you with the development of such measurements. .6 CEU. Approved for 6 recertification credits.

Professional Credit Upon registering for a professional course (real estate or management) for the purpose of obtaining professional credit hours, please include your Nevada license number. Continuing Education Units Some of the courses in this catalog qualify for CEUs (Continuing Education Units). CEUs are a way of measuring and officially recognizing the time and effort you have put into your education for your job or profession. One CEU is equal to 10 hours of instruction. CEUs do not constitute academic credit. They are maintained by The Office of the Registrar and provide you with a transcript upon request. So, what do you do with a CEU? As you update your credentials, are in line for a transfer, promotion or evaluation of your current position, or want to make a vocational change or explore a new career, the CEUs demonstrate the time, energy and interest you have shown in broadening your horizons.

GO BACK TO GET AHEAD Anuhea Hawkins Former Bartender, Current Lead Sommelier “I heard about the International Sommelier Guild through my former general manager at N9NE Steakhouse. He had successfully gone through the program and gave it glowing recommendations. I searched it out here in Las Vegas and found that it was offered through Continuing Education at the UNLV Division of Educational Outreach. I started my first and second level certificate courses in September of 2007, continued on to the Sommelier Diploma Program in September of 2008, and concluded with the Train the Educator course in the fall of 2009. The classes were great because you get in-depth, in-class learning. Both of my instructors, Wayne Gotts and Barbara Phillipe, were a wealth of information. Two very different teaching styles made for learning from all angles. When I first started this journey I was a bartender at N9NE Steakhouse. I have now become the lead Sommelier at Nove Italiano and basically run my own wine program. I’m also an instructor with the International Sommelier Guild and hope to continue growing in my career and expanding my knowledge.”
