Masters in HR - anyone accelerate through this degree? - Whitepines - 01-03-2024

I am considering working on my Master's again and I felt like Walden was slow going. Has anyone done the HR degree in two terms?

It's a brand new degree. I haven't seen anyone on here do this degree. Have you joined any of the WGU Facebook groups? On there you'll definitely find people who are in this degree program.

Oh wow! I didn't realize it was new. I imagine that's why they have such long completion estimates then. I asked to join two groups but they want you to be enrolled so I'm not sure I will get accepted.

I would monitor the program and see if it meets what you're looking for, you should review your needs/wants, example, if you 'want' it to have ACBSP or something, and you 'need' to be able to accelerate/finish in a term or something... If later reviews indicate it's a favorable option or if people can accelerate this in a compacted term, then you can decide to go for it, I would if that was a program I wanted and they got ACBSP!

This is a tempting second master's for if I get my MBA at WGU because it has a few overlapping courses.
