Other Program Notes
The typical student to enroll in this program is an HR professional, with at least 2 years exempt level experience, seeking preparation for the national examination in pursuit of either the PHR/SPHR certification.

The Human Resource Certification Institute (HRCI) governs the policies, processes and administration of the national examinations and does require a minimum level of work experience to qualify for the national exams. Prospective students to the Duke HR Certificate Program whose intent is to sit for either the PHR/SPHR national examination should consult with HRCI (www.hrci.org) to ascertain if they meet the exam eligibility work experience requirements.
