Why This Course is For You!
This non-credit class is
designed for you, as a human resource professional, to further your HR knowledge
and help you prepare to take the (Senior) Professional in Human Resources (PHR/SPHR)
certification exam.
Offered in cooperation with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the SHRM Learning System course was designed by subject matter experts and includes study modules, a CD-ROM, and a range of study materials.
Taking this face-to-face university-based course from Georgia Southern University has distinct advantages over studying the SHRM Learning System as a web-based course or self-study option. Our experienced instructors drawn on their own experience as HR practitioners to help you develop a more in-depth understanding of topics you may never have encountered in the workplace. You also get the added benefits of interaction with peers, a structured classroom environment and study-oriented syllabus, and the shared e-mail discussion list available to all class members and instructors 24-7.
While the SHRM Learning System course is not a prerequisite if you are planning to take the exam, it is the most widely used study guide. As a certification preparation program, it consistently beats the national pass rate.
