Alaska Pacific University, in partnership with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), is now the College/University affiliated program in Alaska for offering the SHRM Learning System Certification Preparation Course. The SHRM preparation course prepares professionals in the field for the HCRI Certification Examination (PHR and SPHR) or for updating knowledge in the field. Participation can also earn hours toward recertification. While there is no guarantee that enrolling in the SHRM preparation course will assure a passing grade, the national average for participants is significantly higher than for those that don't enroll in the program. The course uses the SHRM Learning System materials developed by the Holmes Corporation. It is based on the body of knowledge outlined by HRCI for the Certification Examination. All participants will receive, as part of the course fee, the Holmes Corporation's study materials and books.
