CDHRA - 2025 Fall SHRM Certification Prep Course

Congratulations on starting your professional development journey with obtaining your SHRM CP or SCP certifications!

We will be holding our 12 week classes starting on Monday, September 8th and ending on Monday, November 24th.

Classes will run from 6:00pm - 8:30pm Monday evenings and will require study/review outside of class time.

This will prep you for the SHRM-CP/SHRM-SCP tests.

Deadline to sign up for the course is 7/31/25.

The second testing window for 2025 runs from Dec 1, 2025 to Feb 15, 2026.

NEW for 2025: Applying and paying for the exam is different this year and there is a volume exam rate that reduces the price as more individuals register for the test. A poll will be taken in November on if there is interest in this group package.
