TSHRM is committed to serving the HR Leaders of Tomorrow. TSHRM is dedicated to working with students to enhance their education about human resources and to provide networking opportunities in the field. To assist SHRM in meeting its mission, TSHRM must “excite people to choose HR as a profession” and “improve the image of HR and the HR professional and the role they play in organizational strategy." For more information, contact TSHRM's College Relations Director.

HR Games
The State HR Games were on Saturday, February 23, 2008 at Meredith College. For more information, visit the NC SHRM website at http://nc.shrm.org/webmodules/webarticlesnet/templates/?a=30&z=1.
The HR Games consist of a one- or two-day series of matches between teams of up to three students each representing various SHRM student chapters. Using a game similar to the board used on the Jeopardy TV quiz show, student teams answer HR questions similar to those found on the PHR certification exam. The teams that earn the most points win their matches and progress to the next round. The team that wins the final match of the day becomes the overall champion.
Student Chapters
Currently TSHRM does not have any active student chapters. If you have an interest in exploring opportunities for developing a student chapter at a local college, please contact the College Relations Director.
