April 2019 – A note from the editor

April is such an exciting month because we are honored to be official media sponsors of four excellent HR conferences. The first one was the 2019 ARSHRM Conference & Expo April 3-5 in Hot Springs. There were 37 professional development opportunities and 15.75 hours CE. As I write this note we are at the 2019 SHRM Talent Conference April 8-10 in Nashville. You can earn 14+ PDCs at this excellent event. On April 26 the TN SHRM Strategic Leadership Conference will also be in Nashville. Lastly, the Tennessee Personnel Management Conference is April 24-26 in Memphis. The theme of the
conference is, “Thriving and Surviving in Turbulent Times: The Secrets of Human Resources Success”. If you work for the public sector, this conference is for you.
We are looking forward to three exciting conferences in May beginning with the WTSHRM Spring Conference in Jackson on May 1. The 2019 MidSouth Total Rewards Conference is in Nashville May 9-10. Next will be the 2019 ALSHRM State Conference & Expo May 15-16 in Birmingham. So May will also be an exciting month for HR conferences!

We had the honor of being an official media sponsor for the 2019 SHRM Employment Law & Legislative Conference March 18-20 in Washington, DC. We will bring you highlights from this conference in our May issue. In addition, we will have highlights from the SHRM-Atlanta SOAHR Conference March 25-27. Please check out our Facebook Live videos
