| Recertification Tip | |
HR models need to align an organization's strengths and resources with the outcomes or benefits it is hoping to achieve. For those involved in strategic or transformational projects within your organization, your role would be cited in Section A1 of the recertification log. If you are aspiring to such a role, study and research on HR Models would be eligible for points in Section D and potentially Section E, depending on the extent of the research you are doing. |
