    SOFIA DANILKINA, Chairman of the VKK - the National Union of Personnel Officers

    The National Union of Personnel Officers announced the start of voluntary certification in the field of personnel management. Most HR professionals will probably be interested in this information. Please tell us more about the certification system and the idea of ​​its implementation.

    I am pleased to announce that now it will finally be possible for Russian personnel officers to obtain the status of a certified specialist, which in any professional field is a factor that increases the value and authority of a representative of the profession.

    The voluntary certification system was developed by the National Union of Personnel Officers - an all-Russian association of specialists in the field of personnel management, which has been operating for 7 years and represents our country in the European HR Association. The certification came into force on July 1, 2009. This is a significant event. And I mean not just the appearance of a certificate of a national professional organization, which serves as a recognition and guarantee of a high level of specialists.

    It is important that by creating the certification system itself, we have made a colossal leap forward in the professionalization of Russian personnel management. Among the main tasks of any professional organization is to create conditions for strengthening the authority of the profession and the formation of a positive attitude towards it in society and the business environment and to ensure a high level of training of specialists. From the very foundation of the Union, we have been moving in this direction and we are well aware that only active actions and only the common efforts of all Russian personnel officers will lead us to our goals.

    Our work involves not only members of the NSC, of ​​which there are now more than 8,000 throughout the country, there are many more specialists who support the work of the Union. The personnel officers themselves took the initiative to develop the Standards professional activity in the field of personnel management, which were approved in 2007 and became the first step towards the creation of a certification system. The standards were designed to solve such problems, in particular, as the lack of criteria for assessing the qualifications of HR specialists and the isolation of professional education from practice.

    Thousands of specialists took part in the preparation of standards, in research projects, in their discussion at different stages. At the same time, the NSC acted as a coordinator of actions, consolidated forces for the implementation of all important undertakings of the professional community. Working on the standards, for the first time we compiled a systematic description of the profession, identified and recorded areas of activity, skill levels, a complex necessary knowledge, skills and abilities. Then a mechanism was needed to determine compliance with the specified requirements and a document that would be a clear confirmation of a certain professional level of a specialist. The foundation had already been laid. Based on it, we were able to begin the formation of a system and procedures for assessment and certification, which became a logical continuation of the work begun.

    We actively cooperate with foreign personnel associations, where certification systems are well established and have been operating for a long time. For HR associations in most countries, this is a normal practice of confirming the level of representatives of the profession. The introduction of a certification system for us is one of the ways to show not only to Russian employers, but also to the whole world that we are not inferior in professionalism to Western colleagues. The bar set by us when developing the certification system is quite high, but we are confident that Russian specialists fully comply with it, and the certificates received will confirm this.

    To whom will certificates be issued? Is membership in the NSC required to receive them? Will the experience of the specialist, the direction of his work, the level of the position be taken into account?

    Not only members of the Union can receive certificates, but every specialist who wants to confirm their knowledge and experience in the field of HR management with a document from an authoritative professional organization. There are several certificates. In accordance with the Standards of professional activity adopted by the members of the NSC, there is a level gradation in the certification system. The first step is the operational level. On it, certificates differ in specializations: personnel office work or personnel management. At the next, tactical level, a certificate in personnel management is issued.

    Certification according to the highest level of standards - strategic - has not yet been carried out. But she is in the plans. The principles of its construction and implementation will differ significantly, and preparations are already underway. The specialist himself chooses for himself the level for which he claims. There is only one condition. If applicants for an operational-level certificate suffice with secondary specialized or vocational education, then at the tactical level, at least three years of experience in personnel management is also required. At the same time, regardless of the experience, diplomas, certificates of advanced training, in order to obtain a professional certificate, you need to successfully pass the certification exam.

    What is a certification exam?

    It was important for us to make the certification system democratic and the possibility of passing certification tests affordable. These principles can be fully observed by organizing an exam in the format of computer testing. Such a system will allow conducting examinations centrally, according to a single scheme with a common assessment procedure in all regions of Russia. Specialists from different parts of the country who want to get certified will not have to go, for example, to Moscow. Testing can be taken in your city, in a classroom specially equipped with computers, online. Data on the results will be transferred to the Certification Center, where they are recorded and processed.

    The developers of the certification system have formed a base in which more than 300 thousand control and test tasks that test the general and special professional knowledge, skills and abilities of a candidate for a certificate. For each, a unique test version is compiled - a set of tasks is generated by random sampling from a database of nine thematic blocks: organizational development, legislation, personnel records management and personnel records, internal communications, selection and adaptation of personnel, training and development, personnel assessment, motivation and stimulation, organization and remuneration.

    The degree of difficulty of the questions is determined by the level declared by the candidate. The system takes into account the difference in the requirements for the amount of knowledge at each level and, based on this, evaluates the answers. According to the points received for each answer, in accordance with the given algorithm, the final result is issued - whether the test was passed successfully or not. If the result is negative, the candidate is given the opportunity, having prepared, to take the certification exam again. There is no limit on the number of attempts.

    That is, the answers are checked not by people, but by a computer system? And who made the assignments, and how objective, in your opinion, are the certification tests and their evaluation?

    Yes, examiners do not participate in the verification of control and test tasks, and at least for this reason, subjectivity in the verification is excluded. Computer testing provides an unbiased assessment - this is another advantage of this format. If we talk about the content of the tasks themselves, then it is just the opposite: the guarantee of their correctness, fullness of factual material, validity and objectivity is the authority, experience and knowledge of professionals - those who participated in the development.

    Based on the Institute professional development The NSC formed a coordination center, which included a scientific group to create an algorithm and methodology for the system, as well as a working group that developed control and evaluation procedures. in scientific and working group included leading practitioners in the field of personnel management and labor relations well-known people in the professional community. All experts have many years of experience in personnel management in Russian and international companies, teaching or consulting practice. Information about the developers of the System for voluntary certification of specialists in the field of personnel management is in the public domain, on the website standards.kadrovik.ru . In the same place, by the way, everyone can get acquainted with the detailed characteristics of the levels and the corresponding knowledge, skills and abilities provided for by professional standards and the certification system.

    What is the practical benefit of certification - not only from the point of view of the formation of a civilized professional community, but directly for each specialist?

    In any field, the status of a certified specialist, certified by a professional association, affects the credibility among colleagues and helps to declare oneself in the labor market as a competent professional. As the experience of our foreign colleagues, which we carefully studied, shows that with a thoughtful, detailed and objective system, as well as with a well-organized process of obtaining a certificate, it becomes one of the most authoritative signs of trust in a specialist. Considering that in our country professional education in the field of personnel management is still developing, the "weight" of various diplomas of higher education is not the same, and many specialists generally learned exclusively from their own experience - the introduction of an assessment system based on uniform, generally accepted, objective criteria is especially important.

    Now the certification system is just starting to work with us, but in the future, we are sure, the competitiveness of specialists in the labor market will depend on the availability of certificates. The certificate will be an additional plus in the eyes of potential employers, a guarantee of the candidate's professional level, the ability to solve assigned tasks.

    In addition, passing the exam for obtaining a certificate is an opportunity to streamline and expand your stock of knowledge and skills, to determine a program for further development. After all, obtaining a certificate is usually preceded by a preparation stage, during which existing knowledge is structured and consolidated and new ones appear. And the official confirmation of professionalism increases self-esteem, gives additional self-confidence.

    We consider the voluntariness of certification testing to be a fundamental point. In many countries, becoming a certified specialist for HR managers is considered mandatory. Without this, it is extremely difficult to get a job, you cannot count on career growth. The approach of the National Union of Personnel Officers to the certification system is different. It becomes a necessary element in the development of professionalism and career, when you yourself see its benefits and can choose whether to receive a certificate or not.

    Certification of specialists in the field of personnel management is now only taking its first steps. How do you see its prospects, and are there any plans for further development of the certification system?

    It is still difficult to calculate the growth rate of the number of certified HR managers. But I can say that applications are already coming in. There is a need for certification among Russian personnel officers, therefore, in fact, the NSC began its development and implementation. And the certification system, of course, will develop. The database of control and test tasks will be replenished and updated. The technical component can also be further improved.

    In the near future - the expansion of geography - the organization of certification centers in as many Russian cities as possible. As mentioned above, the development of methodology, algorithms and certification procedures for specialists whose level corresponds to the strategic level of professional activity standards has begun. So there is still a lot of work to be done.

    If an HR manager decides to take certification testing, where can he do it? Where should he apply?

    Testing is carried out on the basis of the Institute for Professional Development of the National Union of Personnel Officers. Now you can go through it only in Moscow. In the future, after the successful testing of the system, specialists from other cities will have the opportunity to take certification tests in their region. Applications for participation in testing are accepted both from specialists themselves and from companies that want to evaluate and certify their personnel officers. By calling the NSC or visiting the websites www.kadrovik.ru and standards.kadrovik.ru , everyone can get full information about the application procedure, dates and testing procedure.

    The start of certification is given! I want to wish success to all who are already preparing for the test, the first candidates for the Certificate in Human Resources Management.

    Alexander, HR director of a network of car dealerships, dreamed of working in international company. He followed the market, and when a similar vacancy appeared, he immediately sent his resume. The manager successfully passed the interview. But another candidate got the job, a CIPD HR-certificate holder. What are the benefits of this program for HR professionals? Is it possible to get CIPD in Moscow? Summary of the magazine "Director of Human Resources".

    CertificateCIPD - international, very popular in Europe. Issued by educational institutions in England. CIPD HR certificate holder enjoys clear advantage compared to an HR specialist who does not have such a certificate. For many employers, the document acts as a guarantee of the high professionalism of the applicant for the position of HR Director.

    There are two international HR certificates: American - SHRM, which is designed for HR directors to work in the US or supervise branches American companies, and British - CIPD (Chartered Institute for Personnel Development). The latter is more valued in Europe, since the program is based on a European approach, and the emphasis is on methods and theoretical knowledge.

    To get a certificateCIPD, no need to go to London - there are already two in Moscow educational institutions who offer such a program:

    • Company PricewaterhouseCoopers together with the Nottingham Business School, he conducts training at his Academy.
    • CIPD training and certification program also implemented Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA) in collaboration with Kingston Business School (Kingston Business School), which is the center of excellence for CIPD .

    To enter the academy PricewaterhouseCoopers, it is necessary to pass three stages of testing: two interviews are held in English, and you need to write an essay. During the tests, not only knowledge of the English language is checked, but also the level of training in the field of HR. The teacher also determines the correctness of the expectations of future students of the program. Tuition is paid, and when making a final decision, CIPD students should not be disappointed if the tuition does not meet their needs.

    Three stages of selection in the RANH and GS:

    Stage 1. Conversation with the curator of the program, who is located in Russia. The conversation is conducted in English. A minimum of four years of experience in HR is required.

    Stage 2. The applicant writes an essay in English, which tells about the solved business problem. At the end of the essay, he outlines his expectations from learning

    Stage 3.Skype interview with the program director based in London.

    The interview takes approximately one hour. During the conversation, HR-work is discussed. Based on the results of the interview and essay, it will become clear whether the candidate will be a student or not.

    Benefits of the CIPD Program

    1. Most teachers of the CIPD program are practitioners

    V educational system Russia is dominated by academicism. In the CIPD program, on the contrary, classes are taught by professors who are familiar with the HR service firsthand. In the classroom practical approach felt immediately.

    2. Training for the CIPD certificate takes only two years.

    The program consists of eight modules, each lasting up to five days, including weekends. The training is for two years. Modules are replaced every two months after a small "exam" - students are invited to solve a group case. The task is completed for several days, then presented to the teacher and students. Based on the results, the winning team is chosen. This format of tasks is not only an exchange of experience, but also a good practice of the English language.

    Of course, the students of the program did not have days off both during their studies and between modules. But there is also an indisputable advantage of such a non-stop study - the ability to systematize existing knowledge and acquire new ones, as well as receive two CIPD diplomas and a diploma from Kingston University.

    3. CIPD students in Russia receive an additional Russian day ("Russian day").

    Teaching on Russian Day is conducted by HR directors Russian companies, practicing consultants and trainers. Such a seminar helps to understand how the acquired knowledge is applied in practice in domestic organizations.

    4. Textbooks in CIPD are offered to choose from - in electronic form or on paper.

    For each of the modules at the beginning of the academic year, students are given textbooks that contain basic information and are compiled specifically for CIPD certification. Students choose according to their taste which media to use. Some prefer paper, considering it more convenient (you can make notes in the margins of books, highlighting the important). During the course, all students have access to electronic libraries leading scientific journals and centers around the world from the Kingston Business School. You can remotely access good sources of information.

    5. The CIPD program involves mandatory and intermediate tests: cases, essays, exams.

    When classes for a particular module are completed, students receive homework, in the form of a case or essay. These forms of knowledge assessment predominate, but occasionally teachers arrange written examinations in the classroom. Listeners are usually offered to solve some business problem with HR issues.

    Control tasks help to evaluate, is it right for the listeners strategic understandingHR functions how they think, whether they are able to cover the problem on a large scale (helicopter view), as well as prepare students for the final work - for a year of study, write a study on HR topics in English with a volume of 5000 words.

    6. Internship in London after the first year of study.

    The cost of a week trip to England is included in the total amount for the course. During the field session, students from Russia get to know their English colleagues, exchange experiences, and attend lectures at the Kingston Business School.

    7. Interesting training: "live cases", business workshops.

    Business workshops are practical seminars where students learn to identify their strengths, develop communication skills, master ways of managing conflicts. In the classroom, there is a constant rotation in groups so that HR specialists from different areas of production, both HR directors and HR function heads, collide.

    In 2013, the practice of "live cases" was introduced. Students solve a real case-problem received from a partner company. The solution found in five days is presented to the HR director of the partner company. Listeners receive feedback from customers.

    8. Thesis under the guidance of a mentor from England instead of the final exam.

    The volume of the thesis is small - 7000 words - but very high requirements. Research, in fact, is written throughout the second year of study. When the listener has decided on a topic, they find a mentor from England, a specialist in the field that the CIPD student is going to write about. The HR problem is being worked out both at the theoretical and practical levels. The research is checked very carefully, including through the Turnitin program of Kingston Business School (to check for the possibility of plagiarism). If the work is not accepted, the training is not considered completed.

    9. Both novice HR workers and experienced HR directors can get CIPD.

    Successful graduates are awarded several educational documents and a CIPD club card. The number of diplomas and certificates depends on where the student will be studying - at the PwC Academy or at the RANEPA.

    Graduates of the PwC Academy with a degree in HR management receive two documents - "CIPD Certificate in HR Management" from Nottingham Business School and certificate of professional development from the PwC Academy

    Three diplomas are issued at RANEPA:

    • diploma "MasterofScienceinIHRM (Master of Science in Human Resources) from Kingston Business School;
