Annual Human Resources Conference
Seminar Presenters Needed!
Tuesday, April 4, 2017
8 a.m. - 3 p.m.
The Florian Gardens Conference Center
The Chamber has partnered again with the Chippewa Valley Society of Human Resources Management (CVSHRM) to present the annual Human Resources Conference. We are seeking proposals from individuals who would be willing to volunteer to present a one-hour session on an aspect of human resources. Do you have experience that you would be willing to share? We are looking for topics on a variety of subjects.
Benefits of Speaking
While this is a volunteer opportunity, speakers receive recognition in marketing material and at the conference. All speakers are invited to attend the entire conference as our guest. And best yet, you are able to promote you and your business to hundreds of Chamber members.
If interested in presenting, please complete this form and return to Becky Seelen (715-858-0615) by January 9, 2017.
