Continuing your Human Resources education online

Ever changing laws and new technology can shift industry standards overnight. It’s vital to learn and adapt to these changes through continued education. We provide current and relevant online HR education programs that allow HR professionals to easily stay on top of new developments and earn recertification credits from their homes or offices.

What are HR Continuing Education Units (CEUs), recertification credits, or Professional Development Credits (PDCs)?

Continuing Education credits are similar to academic credits and are awarded upon the completion of training courses intended to refresh or improve upon existing knowledge. Unlike academic credits, they are not awarded for academic study, but are still used to track and record continuing education accomplishments. HRCI® and SHRM recertification credits are awarded for all HREN courses.

Stay certified with HREN Subscriptions

HREN makes recertification easy. Through interactive online videos and our unique learning platform, the information you need is available right from your desk.  We have over 70 unique courses and our subscription gives you unlimited access to all of our content.  Monthly and yearly options available.

Continued education after HR certification

Industry-specific certifications are a tremendous asset to your resume and expand your professional network. Many employers seek out certified candidates because they value the expertise and advantages that accompany certification. HR recertification courses help you update HR knowledge base and be more efficient in your HR role. Achieving and maintaining certifications shows employers that you’re motivated and passionate about your work.

Many HR certifications, such as HR Certification Institute® (HRCI®) and SHRM certifications, are only valid for set number of years.

As mentioned, policy and technology are constantly updated. Continued education and recertification can help ensure you don’t fall behind and provide the best possible service to your colleagues and business.

What you need to know about HR recertification
