Why You Should Become a Certified HR Business Partner

Early in your career, you can waste months trying to break in and succeed as an HR business partner. Despite all of your efforts, you’ll remain lost because:

  • You lack a formal background in consulting, change management, and HR strategy.
  • You discover that the courses offered in the industry are either too jargon-filled or lack sufficient depth.
  • You don’t have insider tips or the right resources to implement strategic HR initiatives and get buy-in from stakeholders.

To help you become a better HR business professional, we went down the rabbit hole to understand what it takes to build successful organizational culture from the inside out. We interviewed HR business partner thought leaders, learned the behaviors and habits of successful HR business managers and documented our own HR experiences. Empowered with this knowledge, we helped scale global teams successfully while building out this course.

We created the HR Business Partner Certification Course for HR professionals, management professionals, consultants, and people who want to lead organizational change. This course teaches the fundamentals of the HR business partnership, how to implement strategic initiatives, and how to ensure you succeed in an HR business partner role.

What You’ll Get From This Course

Over 60+ lectures, 15+ case studies, and exclusive interviews (more added over time) with human resources professionals in the industry.

Learn key fundamentals of working with stakeholders, operating in a consulting role, enabling change management, and leading strategy while working with analytics. You’ll also get access to:

  • Exclusive interviews with current HR Business Partner professionals from companies and their recommendations on how to use your knowledge to create a better organization.
  • Case studies to inform how you should act on the job.
  • A certificate of completion upon finishing the course.

Bonus Content:

  • We are 100% committed to adding more BONUS course content and interviews with HR leaders over time (we love all things human resources and highly enjoy adding content!) and you’ll get FREE LIFETIME ACCESS to all future content!

What the Course Looks Like

Frequently Asked Questions

+ - What is a Certified HR Business Partner?

A certified HR business partner is an HR professional with a certificate that recognizes their capabilities in strategic HR practices. This includes partnering with business leaders, aligning HR business strategies, and other tasks contributing to overall business success. 

 

+ - When does the course start and finish?

This course is intentionally structured so it can be completed over one month. It is a completely self-paced online course – you decide when you start and when you finish, but we highly encourage you to complete at least a few lessons a day so that you can finish the course at a reasonable pace.

 

+ - How long do I have access to the course?

How does lifetime access sound? As mentioned before, we are 100% committed to adding even more bonus content (we love all things human resources and enjoy adding content) as well as bonus interviews with awesome HR leaders. After enrolling, you will have FREE LIFETIME ACCESS to all of it for as long as you like – across any and all devices you own.

 

+ - What if I am unhappy with the course?

We would never want you to be unhappy. If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 30 days and we will give you a full refund.

 

+ - What is the average salary of an HR business partner?

An HR Business Partner has a salary range of $77,139 to $95,868 according to Salary.com. Getting a certification can help you increase this salary as well.

 

+ - How do I show my certificate and proof of completion?

Upon completing the HR University’s HR Business Partner Certification Course, you will receive a digital badge and an e-certificate. You can download both e-documents and showcase them on your website, or share them with colleagues, managers, and clients.

 

+ - How can employers and managers verify my certification status?

There are two ways you can confirm your certification status. The first is with the e-certificate and digital badge that you will receive upon completion of the course, and the second being via the certification portal. Each online certificate comes with a verification link that redirects to HR University, where managers and/or potential employers can verify your certification status.

 

+ - Is an HR Business Partner Certification course worth it?

An HR Business Partner Certification course is worth it because of the value added to your resume and qualifications. For example, if you are an individual looking to implement strategic initiatives in organizations then getting this certification can add value to your experience and credentials which will help with getting more clients.

 

+ - How do I become a certified HR business partner?

To become a certified HR business partner, first gain practical experience in HR that involves strategic business partnering. Also, consider formal HR education such as HR management or related fields. Finally, a great way to get certified as an HR business partner is to explore HR certifications for HR business partners. A great example is the HR Business Partner Certification (CHRBP) by HR University.

 

+ - Is an HR business partner better than an HR manager?

One position isn’t inherently better than the other, but one can be a better personal choice depending on your interests and goals. HR business partners create talent management solutions and align HR strategies with business goals. They also play a role in shaping HR policies and initiatives that support a specific business strategy. On the other hand, an HR manager oversees day-to-day operations. This includes compliance with employment laws, managing employees, and handling HR processes. Both roles are crucial but require different skill sets.

 

+ - What is an HR business partner equivalent to?

An HR business partner is equivalent to a strategic partner within an organization. Business partners collaborate with senior leaders to align HR business objectives. An HRBP is a trusted advisor to an organization and, as such, is equivalent to more senior HR positions.

 

+ - Is an HR business partner higher than an HR Generalist?

You can consider the strategic HR business partner higher than an HR generalist. An HRBP works with senior leaders on specific HR business strategies, while an HR generalist handles a more comprehensive range of general HR tasks. Nevertheless, both roles are necessary in human resources.

 

+ - Is a HR business partner lower than a HR manager?

No, an HR business partner isn’t lower than an HR manager. Both roles are different and serve different purposes. While an HRBP works with senior leaders on business strategies, HR managers focus on daily HR tasks such as team management, recruitment, and implementing HR policies.
