Shrm Certification In Nigeria

If you are looking to go to Canada, this certification is for you.

There are many reasons to pick up the HR certification.

For a Raise. Promotion. Career Transition.  Relocation.

However, deciding on what HR certification best suits you will be largely determined by your qualification, work experience, competency need and job role requirement. (To learn more click HERE).

The Society for Human Resources Management certification (SHRM) is a global certification for HR professionals with headquarters in the United States. This means that this certification can be used anywhere in the world including Canada.

Why is SHRM the Best HR Certification for Canada?

HR professionals in both the US and Canada which are next-door neighbors both share similar issues. Regardless of their similarities, they are also a few differences. Take for instance; work cultures aren’t quite the same. In general, Canadian workers have more workplace rights and job protections under the law. This tells you that knowledge from the SHRM certification can easily be adaptable in Canada.

This leads us to the second important reason why you should choose the SHRM certification if you are looking at relocating to Canada.

In 2016, Canadian Council of Human Resources Associations (CCHRA)  now The Chartered Professionals in Human Resources of Canada (CPHR Canada, agreed to work with The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). Both parties signed a memorandum of understanding to advance the HR profession together

The agreement lets both parties come together for joint research, professional development programs, shared access to some member benefits, information and content sharing, and further alignment and mutual recognition of CPHR and SHRM credentials and certifications.

CPHR members in good standing can receive the SHRM designation while members in good standing having the SHRM CP (Certified Professional) and SHRM SCP (Senior Certified Professional) designation can receive the CPHR designation by following an agreed-to pathway.

This relationship means you can work immediately or even get an HR job before you relocate to Canada.

Writing The CPHR Or SHRM Exam

The CPHR is a local exam to Canadian HR professionals. Just like the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria (CIPM) is a local exam to Nigeria practicing HR Professionals.

Your guess is right, the CPHR exam can only be written in Canada.

But there is a way out. Earn the SHRM Certification in Nigeria.

The SHRM certification training has often been described as an expensive certification. Earning it in Nigeria can cost over N1, 000, 000 with the down side of not passing the exam at first sitting. SHRM even published that 41% of professionals who sat for the SHRM-SCP February window in 2020 passed. That’s really low but, the good news is, you don’t have to spend so much and you can be guaranteed passing your exam at first try here in Nigeria.

Also, the SHRM certification is written in windows. Unlike its other HR Certification counterpart, the HRCI certification, which allows participant’s take the exam every day in the year, the SHRM exam is written just twice a year – Spring and Winter.
