Why SHRM Certification is Important

Many people contact me to understand as why they need SHRM-CP? or SHRM-SCP? certification. Here are some good reasons to share:

• Professional certification establishes credibility. Earning the SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP credential shows that a person has mastered the SHRM Body of Competency and Knowledge? (SHRM BoCK?) and has remained current on HR developments through the recertification process.
• Certification recognizes professional achievement. It is a visible reminder to coworkers and senior management of the holder’s expertise.
• Certification elevates the status of the HR profession. As the number of certified HR professionals grows, so does the status and prestige of the certification.
• Certification allows you to make a greater contribution to your organization’s success. The knowledge and visibility you gain provide you with an opportunity to make a difference in your organization.

From a practical standpoint, there are other individual advantages:

• Certification provides a sense of personal satisfaction based on having
• undertaken and succeeded in a difficult endeavor. Many newly certified HR professionals say, “I did it for myself.”
• A highly valued certification gives you a distinct advantage in the job market. Similarly, when you are hiring, certification gives you an extra measure of confidence in a candidate.
• Certification is portable across different companies and positions. It moves with you as you change companies and careers. And, for many federal employees, certification helps make the transition from the public sector to the private sector.
