The Sourceful Newsletter - Issue #23
Dear Sourcers,
As you may know, we have offered the Certified People Sourcing Professional (CPSP) credential since 2012. The CPSP is earned via a standalone credentialing exam and proves proficiency in all core sourcing skills. Since 2020, we have also offered the Certified Diversity Sourcing Professional (CDSP) Program, which offers a combined program and examination to achieve certification.
Starting next month, we’ll offer a new, unified credentialing experience combining the best of both approaches. Our next issue will include more details, so stay tuned for more news on the new certification program!
In the meantime, there are several upcoming online training events coming up in the next few weeks:
AI Bootcamp for Sourcing and Recruitment (September 10-12 @ 8 to 9 AM Pacific daily) - Explore the exciting realm of AI in recruitment with our engaging class on ChatGPT and AI tools! You'll learn about ChatGPT as a representative example of chatbot-style AI interfaces. Combining real-time search, 'no code' data analysis and manipulation, and image generation into a single conversational user interface makes ChatGPT our top recommendation for recruitment and sourcing. We will provide you with deeper insight into every major offering in the conversational AI space. You'll understand the differences as well as key considerations and metrics when selecting the right tool for you. Beyond conversational AI, you'll learn about several 'must have' AI-powered tools with no prompting required.
Become a Certified Diversity Sourcer (September 24-27 @ 8 to 9 AM Pacific each day) - join the final cohort of Certified Diversity Sourcing Professionals (#CDSP). After September, we will be merging our Diversity training into our flagship training program. If you are looking for a standalone diversity sourcing class, this is it!
Sourcing without LinkedIn Bootcamp (October 1-3 @ 8 to 9 AM Pacific daily) - LinkedIn is an invaluable resource for talent sourcing, but no single tool is right for every job. Professionals who do not work online - including many from the medical, construction, and transportation fields, to name a few - are under-represented on LinkedIn. To find the right person for every role, we must learn to look beyond traditional recruitment resources like LinkedIn, job boards, and ATSs. Acquire the ability to source and recruit from ALL online sources in this three-day intensive program.
Remember, all live classes and Sourcing Training Library recordings include one month of unlimited online support to answer your questions or help you practice.
Happy Sourcing!
