Revised and updated for the new 2012 exams, the 2012 Audio Edition (abridged) of the PHR / SPHR Study Guide is a comprehensive audio program that covers all six exam topics, and includes an audio glossary and numerous test taking tips. Additional role-playing examples are included in the audio version to help illustrate certain topics. More than 26 hours of clear and concise information, it is an important resource for those individuals who prefer to work independently in preparation for the PHR / SPHR certification exams. This is ideal for the audio learner, those with lengthy work commutes who can listen to audio CD's while traveling, or anyone preparing for the PHR/SPHR exams who doesn't like to sit and read. The PHR/SPHR Study Manual (paperback) is included for a handy reference, which includes practice questions at the end of each chapter, in addition to a 225-question sample test at the back of the book. The 24-CD set was developed by David Siler, SPHR, GPHR. A former question writer for the HRCI exams, David has more than 25 years of experience as a senior level HR practitioner.
