By now we all know SHRM is no longer endorsing standard American certifications like the PHR, GPHR and SPHR. Read these thought-provoking reactions from influential HR pros
Yes I have my PHR but didn't and still doesn't prove that I am competent in HR. Not sure I will renew my PHR or switch to the #shrmcert

If my $.02 matters, I am feeling disappointed as to how all this has gone down. Feels a bit like a pissing match #canisaythat? #shrmcert

My only #SHRMcert question: How long have they known HRCI cert was deficient and how long after that were they selling it as end all/be all?

“@SHRM #SHRMcert: CEO Hank Jackson says current certifications don't cover both knowledge & competencies" I guess a non HR CEO should know!

@robinschooling I spent 10 months studying for that regurgitation exam. Kind of insulting I think #shrmcert

Today's take on SHRM vs HRCI-HRCI would get alot more sympathy if they had paid attn to their customer & kept promises on improved services.
