You'll learn about hiring, firing, motivating, retaining, training and more. Employee development, training, wages, job analysis, unions and benefits are also covered. If you have worked in a corporate environment, you are already going to have some familiarity with the topics covered on this DSST test.

Testimonials for the Human Resource Management DANTES Study Guide
Hello, I used your materials to pass the following tests. I found them very helpful and especially like the flash cards. It was nice to have one study guide to use rather than a listing of expensive books to choose from.
1. Intro to Business
2. Intro to Computing
3. Drug and Alcohol Abuse
4. Human Resource Management
Thank you, Janell K.

I just wanted to add to the testimonies on the web site. I took DANTES "Here's to Your Health" test on July 20th, and I passed it with a score of 445 (needed 400). I had the study materials for only a week and a half, and they were very concisely written and to the point. They are well done, and I learned a lot in such a short amount of time, so I could pass the test. I would not have been able to start graduate school without it, because I had deficit undergrad credits that I needed to satisfy; this test and your study materials fit the bill nicely! -Jen M.
