Q: What is the difference in attending a live ConquerHR™ Boot Camp class versus purchasing ConquerHR™ On Demand?
A: Whether attending a ConquerHR™ Live Boot Camp or purchasing the ConquerHR™ Boot Camp On Demand, our Boot Camps feature competency clarification, situational judgement questions, review of key terms, concepts, theories, and models, and explore valuable test-taking techniques and strategies.

Students who attend a Live ConquerHR™ Boot Camp experience a combination of lecture, facilitated discussion, and exercises working through practice questions to contribute to exam readiness. Most HR pros are highly auditory in learning style and learn best from listening and discussing these concepts, therefore, live Boot Camp students experience the added advantage of real-time, interactive dialogue with Victoria and at least one other HR certification Subject Matter Expert (SME) during class, as well as with classmates in chat during class.
