The Federal HR Processing Certificate Program focuses on real issues and consists of courses that are practical, job-related, and federal specific. Courses required for this certificate cover the legal, technical, and procedural knowledge needed by those who work in the HR processing arena. Since errors in personnel action processing have significant impact on employee careers, finances, rights, retirement, and benefits, it is essential that HR practitioners doing processing work learn what to do and how to do it right. Because the work done by these practitioners impacts government wide HR data, a misunderstanding of these specialized requirements can result in inaccurate information being used to make management and mission decisions.
