The HRSouthwest Conference (HRSWC) is the premier regional human resources conference in the United States. A true don’t-miss event, the HRSWC provides more than 100 educational sessions from thought-leading speakers, an abundance of networking opportunities and an exciting marketplace of more than 200 HR solutions and services. Our goal is to engage, empower and energize you to return to your organization inspired to make a positive and significant impact on business results. 

 

 

Attendee feedback and onsite observations are key factors used in delivering a better HRSWC experience year after year. Some new and improved offerings* in the pipeline that are sure to maximize your educational and networking opportunities include:

The HRSouthwest Conference will offer both HRCI recertification credit hours and SHRM Professional Development Credits (PDCs) in 2015. Earn up to 17.5 credits at HRSWC (pending HRCI and SHRM approval) and up to eight additional credits by participating in your choice of five pre-conference workshops (separate registration required).

This hands-on, round-table activity is HRSWC’s newest innovation in educational offerings. Participants will take part in guided discussions about case studies of real-world HR scenarios and be challenged to develop their own solutions to the issues presented. Cases will be centered around areas of practice and hot topics.

Two-hour educational sessions led by HRSWC Speaker Hall of Fame recipients, Michael Mirarchi, JD, and Alice Dendinger, SPHR.

The Marketplace will be open until 5:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 26 and Tuesday, Oct. 27

Invitation-only sessions for HRCI- and SHRM-certified HR professionals led by senior HR executives who will share successful best practices throughout their career development. 

The length of the session will be extended from two to three hours in order to allow attendees more valuable time on each round-table topic.

A 100% voluntary "buddy system" program teaming conference veterans with new attendees to enrich the educational and networking experience.

Short bursts of energizing and stretching activities coordinated throughout the conference during breaks in the educational schedule.

A referral program providing you and a new attendee a chance to win $100 each in one of eight weekly drawings. Eight weekly drawings will be held Aug. 28–Oct. 16.
