Each year, City & State Pennsylvania identifies the top Commonwealth change-makers who have demonstrated enduring impact in the areas of relationship-building, professionalism, civic responsibility and vision. They are politicians and lobbyists, entrepreneurs and community organizers – many with remarkable longevity. Collectively, their accomplishments show the value and the impact of effort over decades – and the Keystone State is incalculably richer for their contributions.
Congratulations to our 2023 Chapter of the Year: York SHRM!!!
York SHRM had a growth spurt over the past year. They utilized the SHRM members At-Large eblast to reach out to non-chapter members and invited them to special events to include an HR Recognition event another networking/membership drive Carnival in June 2024. The event was a success with about 80 attendees and 43 of those registered were non-York SHRM members! York also takes giving back to their membership seriously. They hold an HR Recognition event that recognizes nominees on their successes as a Department of One or a Team recognition.
York SHRM had held a certification course for those seeking their HRCI or SHRM certifications each year. For the past two years, they didn’t have enough attendees to hold themselves and pay an instructor, so they partnered with Lancaster SHRM and sent their members to study with the Lancaster group. York SHRM began offering an Ethics program each year in December for it’s members in order to help their HRCI certified members the ability to meet the Ethics requirement for recertification each year.
York SHRM also had multiple Board and regular members attend every one of the PA SHRM State Council conferences over the past year. They also boast over five SHRM A-Team members in their membership.
York SHRM previously won this award in 2013 and has submitted a nomination numerous other times. Their tenacity has paid off again in 2024.
Congratulations York SHRM on your winning the 2024 Chapter of the Year Award!
