The number one reason people fail the HR certification exams, according to over 10 years of research, is because they memorize instead of contextualize. This book is meant to provide sample study questions for the SPHR exam, but it also provides case studies, definitions, and other information to help provide the powerful context for those studying to pass the test. Unlike other materials that encourage you to memorize practice questions, this guide offers answers and explanations for each question that give additional context and clues to help cement the ideas in your mind while also helping you to create new connections to other learning concepts, making the learning experience more "sticky." Developed by Ben Eubanks, an author and speaker that has helped hundreds of students prepare for and pass the PHR and SPHR exams, this book is a powerful resource to help today's HR leaders earn their SPHR certification proudly. *PHR® and SPHR® are registered trademarks of HR Certification Institute
