HR Young Professionals (HRYP)
Have you heard the news? SHRM has launched an exciting new HR Young Professionals program! This program aims to supplement the professional network offered by our more than 575 chapter affiliates, with special attention paid to those SHRM members who are just starting out in their HR careers.
SHRM's HR Young Professionals (HRYP) group helps create a foundation for SHRM's professional members age 30 and under by providing resources and educational opportunities relevant to the young HR professional today and building community for the next generation of HR leadership through social media and networking activities.
HRYP on the Web
Please take a few moments to check out the new HRYP webpage, located within the SHRM website at www.shrm.org/yp. Here, you'll find resources that young professionals have identified as those they seek most often! The HRYP website is also where SHRM will promote events and activities for our young professional members. The new website will include additional functionality and features throughout 2010, so be sure to bookmark it and check back often!
