There are two entities that offer professional certifications for HR professionals: The Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM) and the Human Resources Certificate Institute (HRCI). SHRM Savannah supports both the SHRM and HRCI certifications for our members. The HRCI certifications build human resources knowledge and the SHRM certifications provide HR professionals with the competency to apply it. HR certification is an opportunity for HR professionals to validate their individual expertise in the body of knowledge and competencies that are shared within the HR profession. It is also an outward sign of knowledge and professionalism that is recognized by all HR professionals and most employers.
For information regarding certifications offered by SHRM and HRCI, eligibility requirements, testing windows and preparation materials, please visit the SHRM and HRCI websites listed below.
SHRM offers two competency based certifications for HR professionals: SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP) and SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP). The scope of work and depth of your experience will determine which exam is best for you. SHRM Certification gives you the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of the core competencies needed to ensure your success in today's business environment.
