Please note that the recertification log submitted must be completed in full as outlined in the prompts in the log.

Incomplete submissions will not be able to be reviewed as the reviewers will not be able to assess the activities properly.  Incomplete submissions will require re-submission and will not be considered received until the fully complete log and resume are received.   When completing the log, you must use the prompts listed to ensure you have included all of the required information.

Tips for completing the log:

• Every activity must be listed separately
• Every activity must be accompanied by all of the information in the prompts noted for the section it is claimed in
• The specific number of hours must be included for each activity (i.e. 2 hours, 22 hour project, etc)
• Activities must take place within your recertification window.

• Full activity requirements must be met.  (i.e. partial points not given)

The CPHR Competency Framework (CF) provides the national foundation for the CPHR designation and updates the HR body of knowledge.  It reflects the results of the 2013 Professional Practice Analysis and elevating the value of the CPHR designation.

The 2014 CPHR Competency Framework provides employers, the academic community, the public and HR professionals with a realistic and detailed outline of the skills, knowledge and professional conduct they can expect from an individual with the professional designation of CPHR (Chartered Professional in Human Resources.)

The CPHRNB Recertification Committee will thoroughly assess your application and determine whether or not the requirements for CPHR recertification have been met. You will be notified, in writing, of the outcome of the recertification application review.

To ensure the integrity and standard of professionalism reflected in the granting of the CPHR designation, CPHRNB is required to audit recertification applications. Selection of recertification applications for the purposes of auditing is made on a random basis.  You must keep your supporting materials and copy of your submitted log for a period of 18 months after your submission due date.
