Human Resources: SHRM Learning System Courses: Spring 2010
Washington University offers the SHRM Learning System course in partnership with the Society for Human Resource Management during the spring and fall of each calendar year. The actual dates are determined to coincide with the SPHR and PHR certification exams dates which are held from the beginning of May to the end of June and then again from the beginning of December to the end of January. Detailed information about the testing process is available from HRCI, http://www.hrci.org.
Program Objectives: The majority of participants enroll in this program to prepare for taking the PHR and SPHR certification examinations. The highly interactive instructional methodology provides a rich but scheduled review of the content areas assessed in these tests.
