Thinking about becoming Chartered but unsure where to start?
You’re not alone. Many HR professionals feel unsure about whether they’re ready, how to structure their application, or how to find the time.
Charter Assist is here to help.
This service is designed to support eligible members through the Chartering process, offering tailored, one-on-one guidance from an HR professional who understands what assessors are looking for. From clarifying requirements to reviewing your CV and prepping for your interview, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
What is Charter Assist?
Charter Assist is a personalised support service designed to guide eligible HR professionals through the Chartered Member application. You’ll receive up to 4 hours of expert assistance from an experienced HRNZ coach to help you:
Understand what’s required at each step
Support to complete the HRNZ self-assessment for accreditation
Develop an executive summary of your experience to support your application
Effectively select and brief your referees
If you are not ready to become Chartered, your HRNZ coach will offer support for up to 12 months, including setting high level development goals, to help you become Chartership-ready.
Whether you're feeling unsure, time-poor, or just want an experienced sounding board, Charter Assist can help you put your best foot forward.
“I’m super impressed with this wrap around service and I feel its good value for money – but more importantly its given me the confidence and accountability to work actively towards chartered membership.”

Maintaining rigorous standards
Charter Assist is not a shortcut to Chartered Membership.
All applicants must still meet the same rigorous standards, including:
- Completing the self-assessment
- Passing the Chartered Member assessment interview
- Completing the Te Ao Māori and Code of Practice modules
- Meeting the required CPD points
Charter Assist simply helps you prepare as best you can for the chartering process.
Becoming Chartered is a professional milestone that recognises your impact, credibility, and commitment to excellence in HR. It signals to peers, employers, and the broader business community that you are operating at a strategic level and consistently delivering value.
