PHRca PreConference Course
MARCH 11-13, 2019 | OAKLAND CONVENTION CENTER
Kick off your HR West conference with a PHRca® Prep course!

You do not have to be based in California to earn a PHRca and you do not need to have any other certifications to qualify to take the PHRca. Many certification holders add the PHRca to their other HRCI credentials. Upon completion of this course, you will be prepared to sit for the PHRca exam during the convenient open testing window at locations across the country.
Class Location: This facilitator-led class will be held at the Oakland Marriott Convention Center prior to HR West. Come in early and enjoy the Marriott while advancing your credentials. See our Hotel & Travel page to book your extra nights at the Marriott.
Course Details: Saturday, March 7 & Sunday, March 8
Time: 8:00am – 5:00pm
