Every Wednesday is Wins-day!
Participate in webinars and conversations, each month, where attendees can share experiences and learn about the latest HR practices in our Practitioner Webinar. For those who prefer emerging technologies, let ETC or Emerging Tech Connect invite curiosity and questions.
Each presentation offers value amplified in a deep CONVO the following week. Virtual sessions encourage broad attendance throughout the year, and members can suggest topics or give presentations, particularly when seeking feedback.
Why Certify as HRIP?
Leading in People Tech and being certified as a Human Resource Information Professional (HRIP) requires years of experience and a masterful understanding of multidisciplinary knowledge encompassing HR, IT, PM, and L&D that only a fraction of HR professionals attain.
Expand and see these immediate benefits:
HRIP certification is a tangible measure of your experience and expertise in vendor-agnostic HRIM/HRIS concepts and processes, earning a globally recognized credential.
The two-hour HRIP examination is offered year-round exclusively by IHRIM, the only global community of HR technology professionals.
HRIP certification set me apart from other candidates and portrayed my skillset in a more strategic light...as someone who can ‘think bigger’ to solve business problems with tech.
