Hire Image Earns Preferred Provider Status From Society of Human Resource Management

JOHNSTON, RI – Hire Image LLC, a nationwide background screening, drug testing and verification services company headquartered in Rhode Island with regional offices throughout the U.S., announces it is now recognized as a Preferred Provider by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the world’s largest HR membership organization devoted to human resource management.

SHRM grants this status to organizations that offer HR-related courses and training, and meet SHRM’s Preferred Provider program guidelines. With this new status, Hire Image is able to offer courses and award recertification PDCs for SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP credential holders, without pre-approval from SHRM, over a 2-year period. Hire Image regularly hosts webinars and other training events that align with the SHRM Body of Competency and Knowledge, providing HR practitioners with valuable information to support their professional growth as well as an opportunity to earn credit toward maintaining their certifications.

“At a time when hiring managers and HR departments are stretched thin, and regulations that affect their industry change frequently, Hire Image and Society for Human Resources Management are working to keep HR professionals up to speed on all aspects of their jobs, including screening and verifying workers,” states Hire Image CEO Christine M. Cunneen, a SHRM member who is immediate past chair of the National Association of Professional Background Screeners. “Employees are an investment of organizational resources, and knowing who you are hiring is a large responsibility. Knowledge is a key component in remaining compliant with laws and regulations and how to properly use results of a background screening or drug test, for example. We are happy to partner with all HR personnel who are committed to their ongoing professional development.“
