Description
Learning new skills and adding certification credentials sets you apart from your colleagues and establishes you as an expert in your field. For a career path that includes Society of Human Resource Management certification, passing the SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP®) or SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP®) exam is required. Like any advanced certification test, preparation is the key to success. Walsh College’s SHRM Human Resources certification prep class is designed to provide that preparation, and registration is now open. Classes at the Novi campus meet weekly on Thursdays from 6 to 10 p.m. and run from Feb. 15 through Apr. 26. Classes at the Troy campus meet weekly on Wednesdays from 6 to 10 p.m. and run from Feb. 7 through Apr. 18. The curriculum is designed by global subject matter experts and covers the entire SHRM Body of Competency and Knowledge™ (SHRM BoCK™). The course is designed to help students learn and retain the material effectively and efficiently by combining the best exam preparation system with expert instruction and peer discussion. As part of the course, students will receive SHRM Certification. Comprised of comprehensive learning modules in print and e-reader formats, these study materials streamline study time, accelerate learning, and build confidence for passing the exams. “In order to keep your career moving in the right direction, it is essential to add skills and credentials to your résumé, and certification is the best way to do that,” said Michael Rinkus, DBA, executive vice president and chief academic officer, Walsh College. “This prep course guides HR professionals to success on the SHRM exams, and puts that knowledge to work through critical thinking and application in their everyday work life.” Walsh offers small class sizes led by experienced, certified instructors, including Rebecca Davies, LL.M, SHRM-SCP, Tina Marie Wohlfield, SHRM-SCP, and Colleen Schmerheim, SHRM-CP. Davies and Wohlfield will teach the course at the Troy campus, and Schmerheim will teach at the Novi campus. Davies is a shareholder based in Butzel Long’s Detroit office. She is a human resources management and employment litigation attorney, and obtained her LL.M. in Labor and Employment Law from Wayne State University Law School. Wohlfield is a senior HR consultant at Amerisure Insurance. She earned her MBA with a specialization in HR Management from Walsh College. Along with her responsibilities with the exam prep certification course, she is also a co-chair of the annual HR Summit Conference at Walsh College. Schmerheim, who earned her MBA at Walsh College with a specialization in HR, is a regional human resources manager at Paragon Technologies, Inc. She is also the point of contact for elected officials and their staffs in Michigan’s 9th Congressional District, helping to ensure federal and state policymakers understand the vital role that HR plays in today’s workforce. The course fee is $1,495. For Walsh students and alumni, and SHRM members, the cost is $1,295. Working HR professionals should check with their employer, as they may reimburse the cost of the class. For more information, email Cindy Rush. Walsh College offers three different types of certification prep courses. In addition to SHRM-CP/SHRM-SCP, Certified Treasury Professional (CTP), and Certified Management Accountant (CMA) are also available. Walsh also offers a business certificate program in Human Resource Management. This is a for-credit program consisting of four to five classes and is available to those holding bachelor’s or master’s degrees. This certificate program is helpful for human resources professionals seeking to stay relevant in their field, to expand their skills, or to enhance their previous degree. The certificate is offered on campus, online, or a combination of both. A Master of Science in Management (MSM) with a specialization in HR Management is also available at Walsh. The graduate degree can be completed 100% online. Registration: https://www.walshcollege.edu/shrm-certification-exam-prep
