Unit 3: Employee Development and Performance Management

2026 PHR/SPHR/SHRM-CP/SCP

David Cherrington, DBA, SPHR Laura Middleton, SPHR, SPHRi

Organizations keep their edge by developing their people, and this resource helps students and HR practitioners master that work while preparing for the PHR, SPHR, SHRM-CP, and SHRM-SCP exams. Students learn how training and development fits into the organization, from assessing training needs and the systems model of training to the ADDIE model and the principles behind how adults learn. They explore training techniques and delivery, evaluate training effectiveness, and examine talent management programs, performance management, change management, organizational development interventions, and employee retention. Self-assessments, unit practice assessments, and timed assessments let students check their readiness along the way.
