MILWAUKEE, WI, Aug 18, 2025 — The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) School of Continuing Education is once again offering its highly successful test prep course for human resources professionals seeking SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP) or SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP) credentials.
Offered in partnership with The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the 13-week test prep program is designed to provide the guidance, structure and coaching needed to pass these challenging exams. UWM’s course boasts 100% passing rate among graduates who took the test this year, which is significant compared to the national average of about 70% for SHRM-CP and 50% for SHRM-SCP.
“This was the right choice for me to stay on track and help guide my studying,” said previous course participant Jessica Jones. “Going over all the resources was helpful because there was so much, and it was easy to overlook. Also, I did pass the test!”
