Inside this free masterclass
What you’ll walk away with
This is the strategy behind how these exams actually think, and how to study for them when your calendar is already full.
01
The #1 reason smart HR professionals fail these exams
And why it has nothing to do with how hard they studied. Once you see it, you’ll never study the same way again.
02
How the SHRM and HRCI exams actually work
Why memorizing the BASK is the wrong strategy, and what the exam is really measuring when it drops you into a workplace scenario.
03
The R.E.A.D. Framework™
Read, Evaluate, Analyze, Decide. A practical tool for breaking down any scenario-based question with confidence, so you stop going back and forth between two answers that both look right.
04
A study plan that works around your real life
Full-time job. Family. A calendar that’s already full. You’ll build a plan that fits inside it, not one that asks you to put everything on hold.
05
Your next step, plus an attendee-only discount
Full details of the On-Demand Certification Prep Program, and an exclusive discount available only to people who attend the masterclass.

Is this for you?
This masterclass is for you if…
You don’t need to feel “ready.” You need a plan and someone who has walked a lot of people through this before.
✓
You’ve been meaning to get certified and keep putting it off
Every busy season turns into another busy season. This gives you a real starting line.
✓
You’ve tried studying on your own and hit a wall
A stack of material, no plan, and nobody telling you what actually matters. That’s a strategy problem, not a you problem.
✓
You’re afraid of sitting for the exam and not passing
Or you already sat once and it didn’t go your way. These exams reward judgment, and judgment can be taught.
✓
You need structure but can’t commit to a weekly cohort schedule
You want a clear path you can follow on your own time, at your own pace, without logging on at 6:30 every Monday.
Meet your instructor
Latisha Newby, Esq., SHRM-SCP, PHR
HR Executive · Licensed Attorney · Certification Director, Raleigh Metro SHRM
I’m an HR executive and a licensed employment attorney with more than 20 years in the work you’re studying: investigations, terminations, policy, compliance, and the judgment calls that never show up cleanly in a textbook.
I also serve as Certification Director for Raleigh Metro SHRM, so I spend a lot of my time with HR professionals who are exactly where you are right now.
Here’s what makes my approach different. I don’t just teach the content. I teach judgment and application, because that’s what these exams are really testing. It’s why 85% of my students who reported their results have passed.
I’m also the author of You’re More Ready Than You Think, written for HR professionals pursuing certification who need someone to tell them the truth: you already know more than the exam gives you credit for.
Student stories
They were busy too. They passed anyway.
In their own words, from HR professionals who studied with Latisha and sat for the SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PHR, and SPHR.
“
I took your SHRM-CP class in the fall of 2024. Due to family issues, I had to postpone my exam date to this spring. Two weeks later, I took the PHR as well. Passed both! I definitely credit your videos and study resources for my success.

Her teaching style made the content engaging and easy to follow. It honestly felt like being part of a live class. I found myself responding as if she could hear me. I passed my exam.

Gaining my SHRM-SCP certification is a major accomplishment for me both personally and professionally, and I could not have done it without this platform. It’s a great investment for my future in HR.

Cultivate HR Consulting made all the difference in my SPHR certification journey. Latisha’s program is thorough, well-structured, and genuinely prepares you for exam day. The encouragement and community kept me motivated when I needed it most.

I recommend this prep course to anyone looking to take and pass their SHRM certification. I passed my exam because of the information learned in this course.

Latisha doesn’t just review the material. She teaches you how to THINK through the questions, break them down, and identify the best solution.

Your schedule. Your pace.
Those letters after your name are closer than you think.
The people who get certified aren’t the ones with the most free time. They’re the ones who stopped waiting for the perfect week and started with a plan.
This is your plan. Watch it on your schedule, take notes, and decide what’s next from there.
Replay available. Exclusive pricing only available to masterclass attendees.
