SHRM works to advance the profession of people management as a strategic imperative. The certification process is competency-based and anchored against SHRM’s Body of Competency and Knowledge (SHRM BoCK™).
SHRM describes the BoCK as eight behavioral competencies organized into three clusters: Leadership (Leadership and Navigation, Ethical Practice), Interpersonal (Relationship Management, Communication, Global and Cultural Effectiveness), and Business (Business Acumen, Consultation, Critical Evaluation). Certification, obtained through professionally proctored exams, is accredited by the Buros Center for Testing. Maintaining certification requires the ongoing earning of recertification credits through professional activity.
Sammons already possesses the SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP®) certification (2019).
