Part
of SAHRA's mission is to support and promote the increased
professional development of our members. SAHRA does this through
Chapter sponsored study groups.
SAHRA sponsored
study groups are a great way to network with other SAHRA
members, increase your knowledge of the profession and prepare
for the exam. SAHRA study group members enjoy a high pass rate
for both the PHR and the SPHR.
NOTE: The study
groups will meet once a week and will help prepare participants
to sit for the PHR or SPHR Exam. No single course of study
guarantees success on the HRCI examinations.
