Author’s Note

How should I use this book?

Well... use it in any way that is helpful to you as you prepare for the PHR or SPHR exam.

For some, that might mean using it as a glossary throughout your entire exam prep process. For others, it might provide a way for you to quiz yourself - or to have someone else quiz you – in the last final days before the exam. For others, it might provide a way to organize a huge amount of information into a much shorter ‘outline-like’ structure.

And, still others might find that this book is small enough to fit under a pillow the night before the exam.

Relying on osmosis, however, isn’t necessarily the best way to prepare for the PHR or SPHR exam.

Neither, however, is cramming.
