Anne Arundel Community College's continuing education human resource training course is taught by highly credentialed, experienced instructors. We are partnered with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) to offer this nationally recognized program that demonstrates to employers that you've acquired a valuable body of knowledge. This course utilizes the SHRM Certification Prep System®, which is their most comprehensive SHRM Certification preparation resource. Learn about the benefits of the SHRM Certification Prep System®.
The training consists of one course which typically runs in the winter and fall term:

You can prepare for the SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP) or SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP) designation by taking continuing education coursework at AACC. AACC offers both classroom and online courses. Learn more about the benefits of SHRM Certification.
