The Innovative Manufacturers’ Center (IMC), Inc. was recently recognized by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) as a SHRM Recertification General Provider. IMC is now authorized to offer Professional Development Credits (PDCs) for SHRM-CP® or SHRM-SCP® recertification activities.
The trainings will be beneficial to HR professionals in various areas of their jobs such as HR strategy, talent management/acquisition, workplace culture, onboarding and training workers, corrective action, driving down turnover and more.
As a SHRM Recertification General Provider, IMC’s SHRM-approved training programs will qualify for SHRM Professional Development Credits. These credits are specifically designed to enhance HR knowledge and competency in alignment with the SHRM Body of Applied Skills and Knowledge™ (the SHRM BASK™).
Dennis Gilbert, President of IMC, said, “IMC is excited that our approved training programs and events will be able to provide SHRM Professional Development Credits to our manufacturing clients. Small and mid-sized businesses, including manufacturing, face a special challenge in attracting, selecting, onboarding, engaging, and retaining workers today, and IMC continues to add programs and services to assist our clients in addressing these concerns, including our 5 Module webinar series, ‘Meeting the HR Challenge.'”
