Speaking Opportunities

    The Programs Committee for the Human Resource Associations of So NJ (HRA) invites all professional speakers to submit proposals to present a 1-hour presentation (to include 5 to 10 minutes Q&A) at one of our monthly meetings that run from September through June.   Proposals must be submitted in writing using the form below.   We look forward to hearing from you!

    BENEFITS AND YOUR AUDIENCE
    In general, our monthly meetings include a diverse mix of HR professionals from generalists to senior professionals in HR, to consultants working for companies or owning their own businesses, and business-related vendors.  Speaking engagements are not paid as we are a non-profit educational group fee.  However, you are exposed to over 50 HR professionals at the meeting and approximately 200 members on our website.  In addition, you are encouraged to come early and participate in our networking event.  And, of course, your dinner fee is waived.

    PROGRAMS OBJECTIVES:
    Our objective is to define HR’s critical role in Developing Business Strategies.  Topics that might address this theme are numerous and may include developing trends in technology, communication, employee retention and satisfaction, strategic planning, leadership and vision, change management, employment law and so on.

    PROGRAM DAYS / TIMES:
    Our monthly meetings are on the third Thursday of each month. The length of each speaker session is one hour.  Effective January 1, 2023, meetings are held at The Ramada Inn, Vineland NJ. 

    Networking:  5:30 - 6:15 pm
    Dinner: 6:15 - 7:30 pm
    Program:  7:30 - 8:30 pm

    We invite the speaker to join us for the reception and buffet dinner that precedes the program presentation.

    Proposal Evaluation: 
    Proposals will be evaluated by the committee.  The committee will get back to all speakers who submit a proposal for the upcoming programs.

    Thank you for considering this opportunity!  We look forward to receiving your proposal and hearing about the contribution you would like to make in order to ensure our program year is a success.
