Student Recommendations

"Incorporating post-secondary training into the CPHR designation is an important step in advancing the designation and providing greater value for the business community."

- Ron Gauthier, CEO of CPHR Manitoba.

The Post-Secondary Institution Accreditation Program is a significant step forward for the Human Resources profession. The program will recognize the knowledge gained throughout the duration of the post-secondary education program and provide a significant advantage to graduates looking to pursue the CHRP designation.

“As a student immersed in and continuously evaluated on my HRM knowledge, this redesign makes a lot of sense in easing me into my field of work more efficiently. I'm very grateful for the intelligent thinking and hard work invested by great people at PACE and HRMAM."

- Erin Bend, current PACE HR Student.
