If you want to get a certification in Professional Human Resources, also known as PHR, Varsity Tutors can help you get enrolled in a comprehensive and convenient Boulder PHR certification course. Getting your PHR certification can open up a variety of opportunities and show potential employers that you have what it takes to use best management practices within a company while adding value to a business.
The PHR certification requires at least one year of experience as a professional HR position along with a master's degree. If you have a bachelor's degree, you'll need two years of professional work experience, and those with a high school diploma only must have four years of experience in a professional HR position. Your certification gets renewed every three years. The test you'll take lasts for three hours and consists of 150 scored questions that are mainly multiple-choice. The exam is offered year-round and involves a variety of topics from using business management skills to understanding employee and labor relations.
While you have likely learned quite a bit through your degree program at a school like the University of Colorado – Boulder or the Metropolitan State University of Denver, and have most likely gained a lot of experience while on the job, you may come across tasks on the test that will assess skills you may not use on a daily basis. In your Boulder PHR course, you'll be led by an instructor who has experience with these concepts in the format of the PHR. You'll attend sessions with other prospective PHR candidates who share a common goal with you. Your instructor can offer you lectures and exercises so you can get ready for the variety of scenarios you might face on the test. Your fellow classmates can offer insight based on their own experiences within the field which can expose you to perspectives that you might never have thought of. Working alongside your peers with the help and guidance of a knowledgeable instructor can help you stay engaged and committed to your studies. Collaborative learning is a useful way to deepen your understanding of certain concepts. If you find you need additional help understanding something, you can request one-on-one time with your instructor outside of class.
Whatever your current role, it is understandable that you have a busy schedule and other personal commitments. That is why the PHR classes provided by Varsity Tutors are conducted entirely online. You can pick when you want to start, since new sections begin every month. You can choose between two-week or four-week classes based on your needs. The sections take place at different times and during different days, so you can choose to enroll in one that matches your availability and needs.
Since your Boulder PHR certification training takes place online, there is no need to worry about a commute to get to your course. This can help you feel less stressed, saving you time and money in the long run. Online courses make it possible to attend sessions from anywhere, from your home or office to your favorite coffee shop.
Whatever your goals working in human resources may be, enrolling in a Boulder PHR certification class can help you work toward the certification you want. Each PHR task you master can help you progress forward through your career. It makes sense to invest in a trustworthy comprehensive test prep method that can help you get the most out of it. Reach out to the educational consultants at Varsity Tutors online or over the phone to enroll in Boulder PHR certification training, and start attending a class soon.
