The Study Guide is the perfect companion to the Human Resources Management Tenth Edition textbook. The Study Guide provides excellent review questions in the form of True/False, Multiple Choice, Matching, Essay and Fill-ins. At the end of each question, the corresponding page number of the textbook is provided for quick reference/review. The study guide will test your ability to retain information. I highly recommend it, especially for those that are preparing for the PHR/SPHR exams.

I found this to be a very typical study guide - matching vocabulary, true/false, multiple choice, and a couple fill-in answers. It was useful as a review to the text to make sure I knew what the concepts were, but the SPHR exam goes beyond knowing the concepts to being able to combine and apply them. I would recommend this in conjunction with the text for a good review, but you will need to have a much more indepth understanding of the concepts to pass the exam.

I brought this study guide in addition to the book to study for the PHR exam. I barely used it because I didn't feel this was a good prep tool for the exam. All the questions are laid out per chapter, which I am sure is good for it's intended purpose of classroom study in college, but not for prep on a test that is going to answer questions in all different sorts of order. Save your money to just buy the book and leave the study guide for the college students.
