When I learned that NAPS was going to be offering the CERS credential, at the CSP Conference - I couldn’t wait to find time in my schedule to sign up to take the class. There is no doubt in my mind that my clients consider employee retention to be one of the biggest issues on their plates. With over 70MM baby boomers retiring and only 28MM Gen-Y’ers coming up to take their place, there’s no question our clients are going to be facing a talent shortage of epidemic proportions. Current economic conditions not withstanding, we’re about to face the most exciting boom time for recruiters! The need for experienced talent will approach “feeding frenzy” and recruiters will be moving experienced talent from one company to another in record numbers. Consequently, our clients will be frantically looking for advice and input about how to keep the experienced talent that they’ve spend hundreds of thousands of corporate dollars to train.

Join me at CSP for the CERS credential class! I look forward to seeing you there!
