It was hard to believe it last week when I had to move my calendar to August. Time is moving so quickly. I hope that everyone is enjoying some much needed time off, enjoying family and friends, making memories in the process.

As I Iook to September, I am getting really excited about the annual conference. If you haven’t registered yet, I would encourage you to join your ASHHRA colleagues at the 52nd Annual Conference in Grapevine, Texas. There is an amazing level of talent for both the keynotes and the general sessions. Check out the details here. This conference is truly a fantastic value for its investment, from both a learning/recertification perspective, as well as a networking/collaboration opportunity. I hope to see you there!

This year, we are also offering the Certified in Healthcare Human Resources (CHHR) exam at the conference. Now is the time to obtain the certification designed for health care Human Resources and for those of us already up for renewal, the exam is one of the two ways to obtain recertification (the other being Continuing Professional Education (CPE) activities.) I have already submitted for my recertification. Have you?

I look forward to connecting in September! Now, back to summer!!
