The
officers of IUP’s Undergraduate Society for Human Resource Management had the opportunity to attend the 2017 Pennsylvania
State SHRM Conference at State College on September 21 and 22. The
conference hosted wonderful speakers, provided great networking opportunities, and
knowledge to gain for future careers in human resource management.
Students
had the opportunity to attend seminars on background checks, strategies on
powerful leadership, and strategies on how to help engage employees. The group
made many meaningful connections with contacts from the Indiana area,
Pittsburgh area, and out of state.
Overall, it was a great learning experience
that provided insight as to what the professional world will entail upon graduation
from IUP.
