SHRM Training, Conferences, and Human Resources Seminars

HR Florida 2010 Conference & Expo

The HR Florida State Conference & Expo is the annual conference of the HR Florida State Council, a state affiliate of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). Each year the event attracts over 1,000 human resource professionals and vendors throughout the state of Florida and across the nation. These individuals represent virtually every industry and companies ranging from small businesses to large industrial centers.

Programs presented at the annual conference cover all aspects of the SHRM Body of Knowledge. In addition to multiple educational opportunities, attendees will also be able to network with fellow human resource professionals, check out the latest and greatest services offered by an expo hall full of the top human resource vendors and have some fun at our social event. The 2010 HR Florida State Conference & Expo will be held from August 30, 2010 to September 1, 2010 at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort in Orlando, Florida.

SHRM Webinars

Have you had an HR issue come up in your work that you would have liked some help in solving? Or have you wondered at one time or another why your chapter friends are members of SHRM – and what benefit they get from that membership? SHRM staff is going to do a webinar to show you the many benefits of being a SHRM member and how it can help you as you try to advance your HR career. SHRM is the world’s largest HR association – and there’s plenty of good reasons for that, including advisors at the end of an 800 number to help answer your questions, information on many topics that is emailed to you within 90 seconds of your request, “toolkits” (a compilation of samples, forms, articles) on many HR topics that you can download and use, and articles on the trends in HR – what to watch for as our companies work their way out of the economic downturn we have been in.

SHRM is the most comprehensive set of resources for an HR professional – from entry level to senior level – at a very low introductory cost of 39 cents a day! What a great way to learn about the many disciplines of HR and to read about the skills needed and to plan your HR career! It is all available to you.
