DHRM Annual HR Conference

2024 Hampton Roads Header

Welcome HR Leaders and Professionals,

We are excited to invite you to join us at the 2024 DHRM HR Conference, Elite HR: Ignite Your Passion for Growth and Innovation!  This two-and-a-half day event will feature dynamic speakers, relevant and ground-breaking topics essential to every level of HR practitioner, and networking opportunities with your colleagues.

Our theme this year revolves around being an elite HR professional by leveraging innovation and personal growth.  Many agencies have implemented new or enhanced HR programs over the past few years, and several will provide an overview of the successes they’ve experienced.  Why reinvent the wheel when you can tailor and incorporate a peer’s program to benefit your agency?  Hear from industry experts about changing workplace and legal dynamics.  Network with peers with other state agencies to develop more collaborative relationships.  We are all strapped for resources, but great outcomes are possible when you effectively and proactively collaborate within your agency and with your peers.  Our goal is for each participant to leave the conference inspired to take your passion for HR excellence to the next level, making a positive impact on your agency, and demonstrating that you are, indeed, an elite HR professional!
