Alfaisal University’s College of Business alumni, Eyas Ahmed Algharawi and Hamad Saleh Alsheraim, have both earned the prestigious SHRM-CP (Society for Human Resource Management – Certified Professional) certification. This renowned credential reflects their expertise in human resource management and strategic leadership. In light of this achievement, we spoke with the two alumni to learn more about their journey.

How do you see the SHRM-CP certification benefiting your career?

Hamad: Being a SHRM Certified Professional (SHRM-CP) is a significant achievement that reflects my commitment to excellence. This certification will open doors to leadership opportunities, enhance my credibility in the field, and empower me to contribute more strategically to business growth in the future.

How did you prepare for the exam? 

Eyas: I express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Nourah Alfayez, Head of Management, for her invaluable mentorship and guidance. Her dedication and passion inspired me throughout my journey. Additionally, her dedicated preparation sessions played a crucial role in helping me prepare for the exam.

Hamad: To prepare for my SHRM-CP exam, I adopted a blended approach that combined individual and group learning while focusing on the key areas outlined by SHRM. The comprehensive HR knowledge I gained at Alfaisal University provided a strong foundation for tackling the complex topics covered in the exam. I owe special acknowledgment to Alfaisal University and Dr. Nourah Alfayez for their invaluable contributions to my journey through specialized courses, expert faculty guidance, and access to valuable resources.

What message do you have for fellow students considering Human Resource Management? 

Eyas: For students considering their future, I encourage exploring Human Resource Management (HRM). It is a practical and impactful field that focuses on building strong workplace relationships and fostering organizational success. HRM provides the opportunity to create meaningful change by aligning people’s strategies with business goals.

As the students’ mentor, Dr. Nourah Alfayez,  the Management Department chair and an Assistant Professor of Management at Alfaisal University, shared her perspective on the significance of their achievement. She explained that the SHRM-CP is a globally recognized credential that validates HR professionals’ expertise in both strategic and operational HR management. She emphasized that passing the SHRM certification on the first attempt is an impressive feat, especially for undergraduate students, given the exam’s challenging nature. The exam covers complex HR concepts, laws, and best practices that professionals often acquire after years of experience. Dr. Alfayez noted that the students’ success is a testament to the strength of Alfaisal University’s HRM program, which equips students with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in real-world HR challenges and perform at a level expected of more seasoned professionals.

These achievements underscore Alfaisal University’s dedication to empowering students with the expertise, confidence, and qualifications needed to thrive as professionals and leaders in their chosen fields.
