CPHR Designation
An email was sent to our CPHR Professional Members on May 22 regarding membership renewal and submitting CPD hours for 2019. If you did not receive it, please check your profile to ensure your email address is correct and to see that it did not go to spam. As per CPHR Saskatchewan bylaws, once the CPHR designation is granted, an individual maintains the designation unless their designation is revoked due to:
If you have submitted the minimum of 10 CPD hours on an annual basis and a minimum of 60 CPD hours during your three-year rolling calendar, you will only be contacted if you have randomly been selected for audit and are required to provide documentation. If you do not hear from CPHR Saskatchewan, assume the minimum requirements have been met. The term “recertification” is no longer used. Once an individual achieves the designation, they are not required to recertify to maintain the designation, rather maintain requirements as noted above. For those who received the CPHR designation in 2019 onward, you are not required to submit CPD in 2019. The Validation of Experience (VOE) Assessment is the final step in the process to become a Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR). There are changes coming to the Validation of Experience Assessment, as such there will not be a June 30, 2020 intake. Details of the new requirements will be communicated and available on the website by June 30. The next submission deadline will be September 30, 2020. Information regarding the CPD requirements, the online reporting system and the webinar recording can be found here.
