• Acquire the knowledge and understand the behavioral competencies needed to prepare to pass the exam.
• Network, share experiences, and discuss best practices with a diverse group of HR professionals.
• Stay on track to earn the certification with a structured learning experience.

With NRCC’s course, the student will receive the SHRM Learning System and an exam voucher which offers personalized learning that dynamically adjusts to learning style. Students must meet specific educational and work experience to submit their application to take the SHRM-CP exam. The SHRM-CP eligibility requirements can be found at https://www.shrm.org/certification/apply/eligibility-criteria/Pages/default.aspx.

FastForward programs: Courses offered under these programs are designed to be completed on a short-term basis (weeks or months as opposed to one-two years of study). These courses are tied to industry credentials. Students in FastForward programs also benefit from significant cost reductions. Subject to the availability of funds, Virginia students pay only one-third of the normal cost of training. Many students also qualify for financial assistance (FANTIC) to help cover the remaining cost.
