New Test Preparation Options Available to Support Global Certification Programs Including PHR, SPHR, HRBP, HRMP, SHRM-CP, and SHRM-SCP

SHRM Annual Conference, Las Vegas, NV /HR.com Aurora, Ontario — HR Professionals who invest in themselves by means of certification show exemplary commitment to keeping on top of HR trends, ever changing legal and compliance policies, best practices, and much more. As such, certifications are frequently rewarded with more job opportunities, with higher compensation for these more-senior level HR roles. It is proven HR certification is good business. In the last 2 years, HR.com has provided test preparation courses for thousands of HR Professionals with resounding success.

Currently, the national pass rates are only 57% for PHR and 54% for SPHR – depicting how challenging these exams are to write. HR.com’s exam pass rate over the past 2 years is 93%, and among the highest in the industry. With the introduction of the new SHRM-CP designation, HR.com has chosen to remain neutral, and simply offer the best exam prep services regardless of which certification the HR professional chooses to pursue.

As such, HR.com is expanding their commitment to HR Certification globally by offering:
1. Support for both the SHRM (CP and SCP) and HRCI (SPHR/HRBP/HRMP/HRBP) certifications with one set of comprehensive training materials.
2. More blended virtual classes to accommodate increased demand and availability to support more time zones for busy HR Professionals schedules.
3. A wider variety of course options to accommodate individual learning styles. Participants now have a choice of:
a. A blended high touch interactive virtual classroom with a small group of peers in a very interactive format with 32 hours of Virtual Classroom live instruction, via GoToMeeting including 2 classes per week, for 16 weeks or
b. A newly announced totally online self-paced course that is fully interactive with multiple test points and interactivity to keep the material engaging, enabling users to walk through course content at their own pace, in a fun and engaging way. (Available in August)

All HR.com certification exam preparation programs include HRCP course materials (6 study guides, 100s of flashcards, 800 practice exam questions).

“Advance Preparation is essential for any HR Certification Exam, if you want to pass”, says Terri Zaugg, HRCP’s business manager. “HR.com has one of the highest pass rates in the industry and is a great partner with HRCP.”

The next series of classes begins in July 2015 to prepare for the November exam session. For more information on the course or future dates, visit www.HR.com/prepcourse.
