SHRM Programs

Overview

In your career, credibility is everything. To perform effectively, you need to develop technical HR expertise and leverage it through key behavioral competencies. And to advance in your career—rising through the ranks in your own organization or positioning yourself for new opportunities—your leaders, peers and employees need to recognize and endorse you as a trusted and credible HR practitioner and business partner.

Enroll in a SHRM Educational Program to build your competencies, establish credibility, and advance your career.

SHRM Essentials
The SHRM Essentials of Human Resources  program provides an introductory overview of key HR topics and the fundamental issues surrounding HR to help you effectively approach the challenging issues and everyday situations that you face on the job. The SHRM Essentials of Human Resources is the first introductory level HR program to incorporate components of the SHRM Body of Applied Skills and Knowledge (SHRM BASK™) and provide insight into the standards for knowledge, strategies and competencies required of effective HR professionals around the world. While this program doesn’t prepare you for the SHRM-CP/SHRM-SCP certification exam, it helps set the stage for those interested in pursuing certification.

SHRM Learning System® for SHRM-CP™ and SHRM-SCP™ Certification Preparation
The SHRM Learning System is a comprehensive online learning experience that helps you master the SHRM BASK™ to advance your career and prepare for the SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP exams. Professionals who use the SHRM Learning System to prepare for the SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP exam consistently beat the average pass rate.
