    Business Relations Supervisor at Utah State Office of Rehabilitation

    It was the last quarter of the year, and Sarah, an HR professional, was in a full-blown scramble. With only two weeks left in her three-year recertification cycle, she still needed 4 more credits for her SHRM certification. Desperate, she dove into every webinar, seminar, and online course she could find. First up was a webinar on workplace ethics, but right when the speaker hit the crucial points, Sarah’s internet froze. Then she signed up for a course on stress management, only to find herself more stressed out by relentless pop quizzes. Finally, she attended an in-person seminar titled "The Future of Office Plants," hoping for an easy win. But after an hour of aloe vera discussions, she wondered if she’d joined the wrong profession. In the end, Sarah discovered the Employer Workshop on Hiring Individuals with Disabilities. Not only did she receive the HRCI/SHRM credits she needed, but she also increased her professional network. Earn 4 HRCI/SHRM credit at no cost, sponsored by Salt Lake SHRM Register here : https://lnkd.in/gAqrCe3h Contact Benjamin Baldonado, Leah Lobato, Joshua Rodeback, LVRC, CRC, CPM with any questions.
