aPHR Exam Prep: 65-Question Mock Exam, Trainers + Games

This course contains the use of artificial intelligenceThe aPHR exam gives you 65 scored questions in 1 hour 45 minutes, and a quarter of it is compliance with US employment laws you may never have read. This course teaches all five functional areas from zero on video, then drills them in 7 exam trainers, study games and a full 65-question mock exam. The Associate Professional in Human Resources is the HRCI credential built for people at the start of an HR career: no HR experience and no degree required.

That is also the hard part. You have no years of practice to lean on, and the exam still expects you to know which federal law covers a situation, how a 401(k) match or a final paycheck is calculated and what the right step in a discipline or complaint case is. There is no partial credit, you pay $400 in HRCI fees for each attempt, and HRCI's own prep packages start at $499.

Question banks tell you that an answer is wrong, rarely why, and give you nothing to use at work the next morning. After this course you open an exam question and see which outline area it tests. You know that Compliance and Risk Management carries 25% of the exam and Employee Relations 24%, and which area costs you the most points.

You name the federal law behind a workplace situation and what it asks HR to do. You answer pay, benefits and paycheck questions with the numbers. You run a hire, a training, an appraisal, a discipline step and a workplace investigation by the book.

You walk into the test center or the OnVUE session with a readiness score by area, and you keep a starter HR kit you use at work every week. The course is built and taught by Mike:HRCI representative in Eastern EuropePHRi holder, working with HRCI since 2015Coaches HRCI certification candidatesFounder of PapaHR Academy: 170,000+ students from 185 countries and 180+ courses since 2011The course follows the 2021 aPHR Exam Content Outline in proportion to its weights. First you learn talent acquisition: job descriptions, sourcing, structured interviews, offers, onboarding and recruiting metrics.

Then you plan and measure a training on the ADDIE steps. Next you work through compensation and benefits with pay grades, raises, health plans, HSA and FSA, 401(k) and payroll. After that two lessons cover employee relations: culture, engagement, appraisal and progressive discipline, then complaints, workplace investigations, retaliation and inclusion.

Two more lessons cover compliance and risk: the US federal employment laws from Title VII, the ADA and the FLSA to the NLRA, ERISA and COBRA, then OSHA, HIPAA, harassment prevention, layoffs and furloughs. Finally you calculate your weighted readiness score and sit a full mock exam: 65 new questions in the proportions of the five areas, a 1 h 45 min timer, flags, a review screen and a score report by area. Every lesson from 1 to 7 comes with its own interactive exam trainer: 15 questions, mostly four-option multiple choice like the real exam, plus choose-two, calculation and ordering items, with an instant explanation, the outline area it tests and a retry of missed questions.

Study games for every lesson, flashcards, a memory game and a timed match game, lock in the terms, numbers and laws before you move on. That is 170 practice questions in total. Every question is written for this course; there are no real exam questions or dumps.

Everything interactive opens in any browser, on a phone too. This course prepares you for the US aPHR, built on US federal employment law. The international aPHRi is a different HRCI exam, and state and local law is outside the scope.
