The Annual Maine HR Convention has become the talk of the HR nation.

Join your HR peers from across Maine in May at the beautiful Samoset Resort, May 11-15, 2020 as the Convention celebrates 25 Years. The Convention consistently offers the best keynoters from around the country, creates imaginative, participatory training workshops, awards a boatload of recertification HR credits, and generates an atmosphere where HR careers and Maine workplaces thrive. This doesn’t happen by accident. Rather, it’s the result of a great collaboration between your host Strategic HR U.S., SHRM. and Maine’s SHRM State Council and the eight affiliated HR chapters. Add the energy of 950+ participants, a boat-load of recertification credits,  and a showcase of Business Partner resources, and you have a very good reason to join us at the 2020 Maine HR Convention.
