Earn HRCI Credits By Attending PeopleMatter’s HR Training Webinars
Charleston, SC (PRWEB) July 17, 2014 -- Now HRCI approved, PeopleMatter announces its upcoming schedule of free educational webinars. Designed to provide HR professionals with in-depth training on specific challenges unique to the hourly workforce, the webinars are led by subject matter experts and followed by a Q&A session. PeopleMatter, an approved HRCI provider, is the largest provider of workforce management technology specifically designed for the service industry.
HRCI certification, created by the HR Certificate Institute, is the highest standard in the world for HR professionals, with more than 135,000 HR professionals certified across 100 countries. The HR Certification Institute is the global leader in developing rigorous exams to demonstrate competence, mastery and real-world application of forward-thinking HR practices, policies and principles.
HR professionals who hold the HRCI certification must recertify their designation every three years by completing sixty hours of HR-related continuing professional development activities or by retaking the exam and successfully passing it again. PeopleMatter’s informative webinars provide HR leaders in the hourly space with training that not only helps them achieve recertification, but also equips them with action-oriented tips and best practices they can implement in their companies.
PeopleMatter will host HRCI credit-approved webinars throughout the year, starting with five this summer:
