By Sarah Charlier, SPHR
I’m always excited when March begins, as I know spring is on its
way any day now. Below freezing temperatures surely can’t last
much longer!
For those of you who attended our Legal & Legislative conference last
week, thank you!! I enjoyed talking with many of you and listening to the
great speakers, and I came away with a laundry list of policies and
practices to re-evaluate. Our 2014 committee Chair, Lisa Haefner and our
2015 Chair, Amanda Smith, did a fantastic job leading the committee and
organizing the event. Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers as well
as our event sponsors, Ogletree Deakins, Aureus Group, Oncesoure,
Ultimate Software, and Manpower – you all make the event possible.
CISHRM is hosting the employment track at the Des Moines Civil and
Human Rights Symposium on March 18th. Registration and lunch are free!
Topics in the employment track include ADEA & Aging, EEOC & Federal
EEO Laws, Job Re-Entry for Offenders, At-Will Employment, and
Immigration Laws. Sessions have been submitted for HRCI recertification
credits.
Our Workforce Readiness committee is very excited about the kick-off of
our brand new mentor program! March will mark the beginning of the sixmonth program. I’m looking forward to reporting on the results and
feedback from our program later this year. Thank you to those of you who
submitted mentor applications when we put the call out to ensure we could
find a mentor for every mentee who applied!
Remember, if you are PHR or SPHR certified, you are eligible to obtain
the SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP without taking a test or paying a fee if you
complete the online tutorial pathway to SHRM Certification by December
31, 2015. Once SHRM certified, you can continue to maintain your PHR,
SPHR or GPHR through HRCI as you have since obtaining that
certification. I know I am planning to maintain dual certifications at least for
the next few years. Find out more about the online tutorial pathway at
http://shrm.org/certification/pathway .
I hope March treats you well, and I’ll look forward to seeing you at our
upcoming events!
