Sucheta Chadha Dubai is as cosmopolitan as it gets and being a human resource executive is a tricky job. You're not only the person that an employee approaches for their pay but also the guarantor of their happiness at the organisation. HR today is a strategic arm of any organisation. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2009/apr/Sucheta.jpg" align="right" border="1" />So 27-year-old Sucheta Chadha decided to do a Masters in Strategic Human Resource Management at the University of Wollongong, Dubai, alongside her day job as a marketing executive. "A Masters had always been on my agenda, but after an undergraduate degree and a post-graduate diploma, I was looking for something specific. u00a0 I've spent four and half years working now and after sufficient practical experience, I finally found a fit with the programme I'm doing now that offers an in-depth education on human resource management," she said. It's not easy juggling work and an education, but the fortunate thing is that the lectures only happen twice a week in the evening and the faculty's always available on e-mail. "Fortunately, my company's been supportive of my education and the faculty have been understanding about work pressures and commitments," she said. "I'd definitely recommend further education; it's an invaluable addition to your skill set and especially in a job market like Dubai that is competitive and growing." <a href="http://www.mid-day.com/news/2009/apr/230409-Adil-Malia-HR-Group-President-Essar-Group-Professional-Courses-Career-Tips-Upskill.htm">Prev</a>u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0 <a href="http://www.mid-day.com/news/2009/apr/230409-Rajul-Mittal-Amsterdam-National-Institute-of-Technology.htm">Next</a>
