Description

About the program
 
The part-time, online Payroll Management program is designed for payroll practitioners who wish to elevate their career. It is the next step for Payroll Compliance Professional (PCP) certification holders looking to enter a management position. Payroll Managers are responsible for developing and implementing best practices within a payroll department, by monitoring, motivating, assessing, and supervising personnel. Often times they are also tasked with solving payroll challenges and designing and building payroll systems. As a Payroll Compliance Professional, this program will build on the foundation of your experience and knowledge by covering core management subjects such as decision-making and project management and areas of Human Resources. These areas of knowledge are essential to successful and effective leadership.
