Question 3

What is the tutor useful for?

Accepted Answer

The assigned tutor is key to your certification process.
After the completion of the assessment test, the tutor will design with you a training plan considering your availability, and will provide personal feedback every week about your evolution.
In addition, the tutor is available to answer any of your questions about the contents and processes related to HRCI ® certifications.

Question 4

Are there real face-to-face classrooms?

Accepted Answer

No. The Certification Preparation training program is entirely on-line.
However, HR Lands may prepare short face-to-face seminars on related trending topics, with guest speakers, to which you can enrol.
These seminars are not part of the Certification Program and therefore will be billed separately.

Question 5

What are the Virtual Classrooms?

Accepted Answer

Virtual classrooms are live sessions you can attend to put your knowledge into practice.
These virtual classrooms work like face-to-face webinars where you can interact with your tutor and other students in a dynamic environment, sharing information and opinions.
All you need to participate in our Virtual Classrooms is a computer with integrated audio (and webcam if you want to)

Question 6

Are there certain times to attend the course?

Accepted Answer

Although the virtual group course will have a starting and end date to effectively manage the interaction with students and weekly virtual classrooms, the training program is designed to be fully online and self-paced. Which means that can you log when you want from where you want, and all the course content will be available to you.
The group courses will have a dedicated date and time, and an average duration of 12-13 weeks, after which, you will still have access to the resources up to a maximum of 12 months.

Question 7

How long do I have to complete the training?

Accepted Answer

This is really up to you and your availability...
The training program includes a maximum period of 12 months.
The majority of participants are prepared for the tests within 4-6 months, however, for those cases where participants have less study hours available, the tutor can adjust the training plan to reach the maximum term of 12 months.
For corporate training programs, the preparation course can be compiled in modules that can be adjusted to particular business schedules and workload requirements

Question 8

How do I get the study material?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the program package that you purchase, you will have “on-line” materials, for which you will receive an access code to the Learning Portal; or “printed” materials, which will be sent to you on the address provided*.
