� SHRM has invested significant funds in research and development of our new competency-based certification – an investment that is leading to the development of a more valuable certification for our members.

� We recognize that you have invested a great deal of time, money and energy in to obtaining your credentials. The value of certification for an HR professional’s career cannot be overstated, which is why we’ve always encouraged our members to seek certification.

� So, we are reducing or eliminating certain fees currently associated with certification and re-certification.

� SHRM is designing its certification program to meet the highest

standards of the industry. In order to ensure that there is no conflict

of interest, SHRM will create a separate credentialing arm, the

SHRM Certification Board. The SHRM Certification Board will

manage all aspects of the certification program, including the

overall development of the exam, eligibility requirements, and

issuance of recertification.

� This best practice is commonly used in the certification industry by

organizations such as the American Society of the Association

Executives (ASAE), the Project Management Institution (PMI), and

the Human Resources Professional Association (HRPA). This is a

common best practice in the certification industry and is followed by

and accepted under the ISO standard for certifying bodies. SHRM

anticipates that we will obtain accreditation of our new certification

program from ANSI and/or NCCA.
