May you help me to foward the following information, so that more people will sign up? For student who is interested in PHR, there is an 8-week long PHR class offering at UB on March 11. This class will focus on strengthening the knowledge base by participating in a comprehensive review of the HR technical body of knowledge, while preparing for the HRCI professional in Human Resources ( PHR) exam. There are 5 major reasons you should take exam before you graduate: 1. Cheaper examination and class fee for students (about $200 less) 2. You still remember what you learned in school for the test 3. You can benefit more from the PHR as a student (esp. for those who do not have any experience in HR) 4. Your study skill is better since you are an active learner 5. After a year you graduated, you'll need to have two-year exempt-level professional HR-work experience to be eligible to register the test again. The registration forms are attached. You can call our headquarters staff at (410) 752-3318 for help. They are who you turn in the forms to. Thank you very much! JOYCE
