Hi,

I have been working in the HR field for 1 and half years now and have been thinking of gaining more knowledge specfic to the HR field by getting a certification. While exploring the web, I found I could enroll in HR certification programs at the local state universities or could go for a PHR certification. Does anyone have suggestions as to which of these would be a better career decision? Does it matter if one gets a certification from SHRM or any other university?

The SHRM certification carries much more power than the certifications you receive at a university. That is not to say that one is necessarily better than another, rather, they are different. Now if you were talking about a graduate level degree....that is a little different! Good luck!
