Register today! Validation of Professional Experience Information Session - November 21 12pm-1pm click here OR November 22 5pm-6pm click here

CPHR Candidates should attend at least one information session prior to submitting their Validation of Professional Experience (VPE) application. The info session will review the application form in detail and answer your questions related to submitting your VPE. Get your questions answered in person by Lori Brûlé, CPHR Designation Manager.

The Validation of Professional Experience (VPE) requires candidates to demonstrate three or more years of professional experience in human resources within the last ten (10) years (the length of experience required depends on the path taken). 

The VPE requires Candidates to demonstrate experience at the professional level, which means that you must be using technical HR knowledge and have a level of autonomy in the application of your HR knowledge. Duties that are purely administrative requiring no HR knowledge are not considered.

For more details about the Validation of Professional Experience, please click here. Can't join us? Contact Lori Brûlé, CPHR Designation Manager by email at lori@cphrmb.ca or by phone at 204-943-3624.

 

While cleaning up your home and yard for fall, don't forget to update your CPHR designation!

1. For CPHRs, make sure you've updated the designation on LinkedIn, your business card, your email signature, and any other public profiles.

2. If you've recently achieved the CPHR designation, add it to your last name on your LinkedIn profile and under the "Certifications" section and on all other public profiles.

3. If you are a new CPHR Candidate, add the title to you last name on LinkedIn and on all other public profiles. 

Keeping your CPHR designation updated is a great way to be a brand ambassador for the designation and CPHR Manitoba!

 

What is a CPHR?

The CPHR designation represents a commitment to a national standard of excellence and sets a benchmark for the practice of effective Human Resources. It emphasizes the strategic role of HR management in business and plays an important role in securing HR's position as an equal business partner at the senior management table.

The CPHR designation signifies that an individual has achieved and continues to actively demonstrate mastery of the HR body of knowledge. Through a national examination and assessment process, each CPHR designate must demonstrate the core competencies relevant to the HR profession.

Certification is an essential tool for maintaining high performance standards. The designation assures employers, clients and other HR professionals that a CPHR has committed to abiding by Code of Ethics & Rules of Professional Conduct, a breach of which will result in disciplinary action including the possible removal of the designation. 

You earn the confidence of your employer, colleagues and peers with the knowledge that you are a leader in your field, committed to achieving HR excellence.
