CPHR Saskatchewan will be cancelling the HR Forum on April 2, 2020 with no virtual alternative. Like many other local and national events, simply postponing the HR Forum is not possible as it is difficult to determine when it will be safe to schedule a large gathering.  The HR Forum is an event that is hosted each Spring, to complement (not substitute) the annual Conference held in the Fall.  After the 2020 Conference in September, planning will begin to host the HR Forum in Regina in 2021.  We look forward to seeing you at both events!

If you registered for this event you should have received an email from Charmaine Wintermute with cancellation and refund details.  If you have not received this information, please email cwintermute@cphrsk.ca.
