HR Certification SHRM & HRCI Exams

When companies are looking to hire someone for an HR position, they are looking at experience, education, HR certification and fit.  Surprisingly, less than 15% of HR professional are certified.  With that being said, certification is one way to set yourself apart from the crowd.

Additionally, not everyone who takes a certification exam passes.  In fact, the pass rate is between 50%-70%.  However, the fact that someone is taking the time to ensure that they are up on the HR body of knowledge is a professional step in the right direction.

“I thoroughly enjoyed his class.  Having over 8  years of experience in HR but learning from on-the-job this class  provided me with a lot of the technical names, laws and language of HR.   The way he presented with personal stories and examples  provided me with real examples and not just reading form a book.  It  also prepared me I believe and will soon find out for the PHR test.  I was surprised that he encouraged the entire class to connect with him on LinkedIn and email him with questions as we prepared  for the PHR test. In any event I don’t normally write about  professors  or trainers but I was impressed with him.”

“I took the  aPHR exam last Friday, May 11th and I think you’ll be happy to hear  that you can add me onto your 92% pass rating!  Along with that I got a volunteer HR coordinator internship  through the mentor that you provided!  Thank you for everything you’ve done to help get me where I needed  to be for post graduation and everything you do for UC students.    p.s. you are the raddest professor ever!”
