PHR/SPHR Certification Preparation 

GPHRs may earn up to 21 recertification hours when attending this program for professional development.

Program Overview
Led by qualified and certified HR instructors, our intensive PHR/SPHR preparation seminars, combined with the 2013 SHRM Learning System—the #1 PHR and SPHR certification preparation tool that consistently helps professionals beat the national pass rate, present a comprehensive and detailed review of the current PHR/SPHR body of knowledge. By attending, you will be able to identify areas of strength and build on them. You will also see where you need further concentrated study in preparation for taking either certification exam.

Utilizing your SHRM Learning System before the course begins will prepare you to gain the greatest benefits from attending. These certification preparation seminars should not be considered your only preparation, it is a very valuable step which will help you focus your study efforts to maximize your results.

Benefits & Features

  • Outside-the-classroom assignments consisting of sample test questions and periodic progress checks help reinforce classroom sessions so you can be confident of your breadth of knowledge.
