A boost for HR professionals

Changing landscape: Devadoss says the human capital landscape in Malaysia is becoming more complex because the Baby Boomers (born between 1940s and early 1960s) are retiring and a large numbers of Gen-Y and milennials (born in and after 1980) have started entering the workforce.

Kelly Outsourcing & Consulting Group, the outsourcing and consulting group of Kelly Services, recently announced the availability of a globally recognised set of HR Professional Certification Programmes aimed at driving the local human resources fraternity towards attainment of internationally recognised HR professional standards.

KellyOCG’s vice president for the Asia Pacific, Anthony Raja Devadoss, says that the initiative is part of the company’s efforts, as part of the private sector’s initiative, to develop the overall HR community to support the nation’s growing demands for certified HR professionals and specialists.
