SHRM People Manager Qualification (PMQ)

What is the People Manager Qualification (PMQ)?

• The People Manager Qualification (PMQ) is a unique, interactive virtual learning experience designed to develop critical skills to manage effectively and transparently. 

How do I earn the People Manager Qualification (PMQ)? 

• The interactive content in PMQ is constructed to flow like your favorite streaming series: divided into digestible episodes throughout three seasons. At the end of each season, you’ll take a self-paced assessment (called "Season Finale"). When you pass the assessment, the next season will be unlocked. 
• After successfully completing all three seasons, you will take the final cumulative dynamic behavioral assessment (called "Series Finale"). 
• The complete learning experience is self-paced and takes between 10 and 13 hours to complete, including the final assessment.
• There will be a 12-month window to complete the PMQ learning experience, including the final assessment.

What do I get after I earn my PMQ?

• Upon successfully completing the final assessment, the learner will earn his or her SHRM PMQ and will be provided with a digital badge and certificate of achievement.
• For those who are SHRM-certified, 16.5 PDCs will be awarded upon completion of the full program and will only be awarded once the final assessment is complete—pass or fail.
• Learners will have access to the PMQ content for one year after purchasing the PMQ.
