    The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has launched an initiative to create a nationwide member advocacy network of HR Advocates collectively known as the Advocacy Team, or A-Team, to fully engage our members in the public policy process.

    The sessions are designed to inform and educate HR professionals about how to engage in the public policy process as HR Advocates or Advocacy Captains (Advocacy Captains are key contacts helping coordinate SHRM's efforts in each congressional district).

    During the program, David Lusk, SHRM's Senior Associate for Member Advocacy, will: describe how to get involved in the public policy process; provide best practices for developing lasting relationships with elected officials and their staff in your state; and share effective ways to communicate the HR professional’s perspective on key workplace issues.

    The A-Team programs have been pre-approved for HR Certification Institute strategic recertification credit hours.

    (Registration and lunch are from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm with the A-Team session running from 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm). SHRM Advocacy Team: Shaping HR Public Policy.  To register and for more information, please visit CISHRM's site HERE (Worth 1 hour of HRCI strategic recertification credit).
