Getting Your HRCI Certification

Is getting certified one of your goals for 2017? The Nevada Association of Employers (NAE) is here to help! Through our partnership with HR Certification Institute (HRCI), HR professionals who work for NAE member organizations receive a $50 discount off the HRCI exam fee. In addition, once you become certified you will be eligible for up to 12 Recertification Credits per renewal cycle just for being an employee of a NAE member organization.

As of May 1, 2017, HRCI updated its exam pricing to reflect the value of each credential. All exams purchased after May 1st include a FREE digital copy of the new and improved edition of A Guide to the Human Resource Body of Knowledge (HRBoK). The HRBoK is divided into six content areas: Business Management and Strategy; Workforce Planning and Employment; Human Resource Development; Compensation and Benefits; Employee and Labor Relations; and Risk Management.
