RWHRMA PHR/SPHR Certification Classes
Just how important is certification? 
A recent HRCI survey of more than 1,500 HR professionals produced some eye-opening results:
     • 96% of respondents said an HR certified candidate applying for a job at their organization would have an advantage over a non-HR certified candidate
     • 82% said that professionally certified employees have a strong impact on a company’s profitability
     • 69% said that an HR certified person being considered as an independent consultant for an HR department would have a ‘very significant’ advantage over a non-HR certified person


The survey, which was conducted earlier this year by HRCI and B2B International and released in June, also found that employers place a high premium on professional HR certification because it reflects practical and professional experience, shows a commitment to lifelong learning and helps with career advancement. In addition, while employers are more willing to pay for certificate programs and professional certification, professional certification is considered a better value for the money spent.
