Certified Human Resources Professional or CHRP, is a designation achieved by Human Resources professionals in Canada. Steps to certification include an academic program focused on courses such as Recruitment, Industrial Relations, Organizational Behaviour, as well as many others and two nationally held exams. The first, the NKE, or "National Knowledge Exam" is usually written upon successful completion of the academic requirements while the second exam, which consists of situational questions, is usually completed after several years of work experience. [1]


Established in 1994, the Canadian Council of Human Resources Associations (CCHRA) is a collaborative effort of human resources associations from across Canada, which represent more than 41,000 professionals, 21,000 of whom hold the Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP) designation.


The CCHRA is the national voice on the enhancement and promotion of the profession across Canada, through established and credible designations, collaborating on national issues related to the profession, leading federal government relations, and proactively positioning the national human resources agenda at the international level.[2]


Certification requirements include writing the National Knowledge Exam, and then a National Professional Practice Assessment after completing a recommended two to three years of work experience. Exam writers must also satisfy any requirements of their provincial HR association. As of January 1, 2011 all provincial associations will require an undergraduate degree prior to exam registration. Designation holders must re-certify every three years in order to keep the designation valid.[3]


The following exam prep resources are available for individuals looking to obtain their CHRP designation by writing the NKE and NPPA exams:
