Use the exact credential total

HRCI currently lists 60 recertification credits for SPHRi. Track the specialty requirement separately: at least 15 Business credits.

Keep ethics visible

HRCI currently requires all certificants to fulfill one Ethics credit as part of the overall recertification-credit requirement. Reaching the total does not excuse that subrequirement.

Record credits as you earn them

Keep dates, activity evidence, category, and provider information in case the recertification submission is selected for audit. HRCI also permits qualifying surplus-credit carryover under its current program, so retain the original activity records.
