RENEWING YOUR CHRP Designation

"I received my CHRP designation on February 27, 2003 and celebrated this with my HR team. Personally, it gave me a sense of accomplishment and pride to know that I am a recognized Certified Human Resources Professional. This has opened opportunities in terms of succession planning within my organization, as well as a level of respect from the Management Team."

Ann Vermette
Human Resources Consultant

The CHRP must be recertified every three years. Recertification can be obtained through one of two options.

OPTION 1
Professional Development Activities
The CHRP holder must complete and submit:

  National Recertification Guide


OPTION 2
Examination
The CHRP holder must write and pass the CHRP National Professional Practice Assessment. The passing score on this examination is 70% or higher.

Either requirement must be initiated within six months before the expiry of the 3-year CHRP designation period. If the CHRP holder's three years are up, they can no longer use the CHRP designation and must write the Knowledge and National Professional Practice Assessments to re-obtain their CHRP.

Effective in 2005 the annual invoice from the Association will contain the date of the expiry of the CHRP designation. This will be the only notification that the CHRP holders will receive with respect to their designation. At the time of receipt, the CHRP holder should decide on and initiate appropriate action on the recertification option they wish to follow.

OPTION 1
Professional Development Activities

This option requires the recertifying CHRP holder to be a member in good standing of HRANB and to document the professional development activities they have engaged in during the preceding three year period. This requirement is not onerous, but ensures that the CHRP holder remains active and current in the profession.

Those applying for recertification must complete the National Recertification Guide.

CHRP holders applying for recertification must complete and submit the Recertification Guide, along with a current copy of their resume.

National Recertification Guide

CHRP holders whose activities meet the requirements and who sign the CHRP Code of Ethics will be notified by HRANB that they have successfully recertified. HRANB will notify the Professional Standards Office of the CCHRA, who will update the CHRP holder's status in the National CHRP Registry.

CHRP holders who activities do not meet the requirements will be informed by HRANB that their recertification application has been denied. At that time they will be informed of their right to appeal this decision to the President of the HRANB. Their correspondence must provide the reason and any new relevant information to support their request to overturn the original decision. If the appeal is unsuccessful, they will have their CHRP revoked and be asked to return their CHRP Certificate to HRANB. To regain their CHRP, they must complete the certification process from the beginning by successfully writing both the Knowledge and outcomes assessments.

OPTION 2
Examination: Professional Practise Assessment

This option requires the recertifying CHRP holder to write the National Professional Practice Assessment. The preparation and conditions for this assessment are similar to that described on the website under National Professional Practice Assessment. Those choosing this option must apply to write at least 90 days prior to the scheduled date of assessment and are required to pay the related examination fee.

CHRP holders who successfully complete the National Professional Practice Assessment and sign the CHRP Code of Ethics will be notified of their status by HRANB. These CHRP holders can again use their CHRP designation for an additional three year period.

CHRP holders who are not successful will be advised by HRANB of what options they have available to them at that point. Typically there are two choices. The CHRP holder must either:

  • Retake the NPPA and pay the required fee; or
  • Fulfill the requirement needed to earn 100 points through completion of one of the two available logs.
