HR Certification Guide Untangling the Web - Workology

HR Certification Guide Untangling the Web - Workology HRCI and SHRM Certification Program History The HR certification landscape is now complex, political and often times confusing for practitioners.  Just last week HRCI announced their new aPHR certification for entry level or college student professionals. I cant imagine what newbies feel like as they begin researching HR certification programs and testing. Some practitioners also feel forced to take sides with either HRCI or SHRM showing their support for an organization or the other by recertifying with only one organization.  Politics aside (I consider myself Switzerland here), the addition of yet another certification has left me wondering how many HR and human resource certifications are there exactly? HRCI and SHRM Certification Program History Beginning in 2014, SHRM and HRCI took two different paths for human resources certification. Prior to 2014, HRCI shared offices with SHRM and Hank Jackson was on HRCIs board of directors. HRCI was fully embedded into every SHRM until the big announcement around their split. Practitioners received their HR certification through HRCI while preparing for the test using the SHRM learning system. The HRCI and SHRM was branded as the same entity which lent to the confusion that many consider SHRM and HRCI to be the same company. (Click here to read a collection of resources and information on the conscious uncoupling.) SHRMs new certification program took a competency-based approach while HRCI offers a mastery of principles. Both offer exams, learning systems, training programs and recertification to maintain the HR professional designation of your choosing. The HRCI and SHRM certification programs are now two separate entities offering two different paths to HR certification. Personally, I am choosing to stay certified with HRCI as a Senior Professional of Human Resources (SPHR) as well as certified with SHRM as a Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP). This site also chooses to serve as an approved provider for both HRCI and SHRM programs. Our webinars on demand have over 50 podcasts, webcasts and webinars available for HRCI and SHRM recertification credits. Untangling the HR Certification Web: 40+ HR Certification Designations For folks who are new to HR, graduated or researching the possibility of HR certification, its easy to get confused.
