Annual HR Awards

Greenville SHRM offers several awards each year to recognize outstanding members for their contributions to the field of human resources. Members are encouraged to nominate deserving individuals and/or organizations. Current nominations are accepted from February 1 through March 1. 

Greenville SHRM appoints a selection committee to facilitate the judging of all nominee applications. The selection committee consists of past presidents and past award recipients. An objective scoring system is used to select the highest scoring nominee for each category.

Award recipients will be recognized at the Annual Spring Conference in April.
