California HR Conference Kicks Off Today in Anaheim

Today, the California HR Conference®, (www.cahrconference.org) the second largest conference for human resources professionals in the United States, opened its doors at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif. This year, the event expects to draw more than 3,200 attendees in the HR field, predominantly from California to network, gain credit hours for recertification and learn the latest HR news and techniques.

Attendee interest in this year’s California HR Conference, produced by the Professionals In Human Resources Association (PIHRA), is heightened by the coming health care reform changes, which analysts say are likely to affect employee benefits programs in 2013 and beyond for California employers.

The California HR Conference offers a “Bosses Day” where supervisors of HR professionals are allowed to attend the conference for free with their direct reports and learn about best practices in the field. Also, this year the conference boasts an all-star lineup of keynote speakers including Liz Wiseman, Stedman Graham and President & CEO of Scripps Health, Chris Van Gorder.

The California HR Conference runs today through Wed. August 28 at the Anaheim Convention Center.  For more information, please visit www.cahrconference.org.
