Hello,
It seems certification courses in India are on the rise with several consultants initiating short-duration certification courses. Initially, it was the 'Certified Recruitment Analyst' that had made an impact on the industry, and recently, I came across the 'Confluence Certified Recruiter' (CCR) certification from a Pune-based consulting firm.
Can someone shed light on the benefits/disadvantages of the 'Confluence Certified Recruiter' (CCR) certification, considering that this certification does not cost a huge amount and is a 15-day course? However, is this a recognized course in the industry, and does it carry any weight?
Also, has anyone undergone this course or would be able to guide whether to pursue this certification or not?
Thanks in advance, and I look forward to your esteemed responses.

Dear Jigar,
This is a valid point that you have raised at the advent of such courses being offered across the globe. I am an HR Manager with 11 years of expertise in this field. I have been through the details of this course and really find it relevant. This course will really help the industry at large to create better recruitment professionals as these certifications make them specialized in recruitments.
Otherwise, whenever we conduct interviews for similar positions, the candidates are only aware of the theories in recruitments. Companies abroad do consider candidates with similar certifications, so why not in India? Hope this piece of information helps you to take a decision.

Hey, I have gone through the course offered by Confluence Certified Recruiter and also cleared the same. It was really educating and practical. It is cost-effective, and the course material is extensive. The exam was a real test and nail-biting. I think it should be taken up by various HR professionals. Hope these details help you.

Rubbish,
MBA-HRM is more than enough to work in any area of HR, and you don't have to go for special training; just the concentration matters. There are a lot of internal training programs conducted in companies nowadays. HR should concentrate on training like PHR/SPHR/GPHR, etc. These courses developed in India are copycats. Don't ever take a course from private institutions, and don't believe that they will last longer. CCR is not approved by AICTE, so this is not a guarantee for your career growth. Private institutions nowadays create these types of topics in forums to advertise their training courses that are worthless. Just ignore this topic and concentrate on something realistic.
If anyone wants to do a course in HR or Recruitment, they can join ICFAI or SYMBIOSIS or any other institute of the same specialty. Don't ever reply to any of these discussions done here.
