Human Resources National Exam Prep Program

Description:

Want your national HR certification? Prepare for either or both the HRCI (PHR/SPHR) or the SHRM (CP/SCP) national exams.

Since 2005, the Human Resources National Exam Prep Program from Extended Studies at the University of Nevada, Reno has provided detailed instruction in the skills necessary to take the Human Resource National Exams. Today the program covers materials that will help students take either the HRCI’s PHR/ SPHR or the SHRM CP/SCP examination.

This intensive 15-session program is offered online via Zoom. It provides a comprehensive review for HR professionals by enhancing skills and knowledge, and preparing participants with test-taking techniques and materials for either the HRCI or the SHRM national exams. Passing one or more of these exams indicates your mastery of the human resources field and is highly regarded when hiring HR professionals.

Professional advancement
Certification indicates a level of professional achievement in one’s field. The HRCI's PHR and SPHR, or SHRM's CP or SCP designations are earned only by those who have demonstrated mastery of the human resources body of knowledge and have met the challenge to stay informed of new developments in a rapidly changing field.

Requirements
To receive a certificate of completion for the University’s Human Resources National Exam Prep Program, participants must attend 12 of the 15 sessions.

For more information about qualifying to take the national PHR and SPHR exams, please visit the HR Certification Institute website at www.hrci.org. The HRCI testing organization will assess eligibility and approve qualifications to take the PHR or SPHR exam based on applications submitted directly to HRCI.

For more information about qualifying to take the national CP and SCP exams, please visit the SHRM website at www.shrm.org. SHRM will assess eligibility and approve qualifications to take the CP or SCP exam based on applications submitted to them.

Completion of the University’s Human Resources National Exam Prep Program does not guarantee acceptance from HRCI or SHRM for testing.

In addition to the Prep Program, Extended Studies offers the Human Resources Management Certificate.
