It is time to begin recruiting for the HRGames academic competition! We will need approximately 75-100 volunteers to help during the HRGames competition. We need certified professionals and non-certified professionals to help us during this event.
The HRGames is a fun way for students to share their HR knowledge. It is structured in a game show style match, with competition between teams of up to three undergraduate students from various colleges and universities in the region. The questions for the matches are divided into categories by HR competencies (i.e., Management Practices; Selection & Recruitment; Training & Development; Compensation & Benefits; Employee/Labor Relations; and Health, Safety & Security). In each round, students select points and a category of questions. The question is read twice and the teams have 15 seconds to supply the correct answer. After a series of initial matches, teams with the best records participate in the championship rounds for first and second place.
