It is time to begin recruiting for the HRGames academic competition held in conjunction with our annual Northeast Regional Student Conference! We need approximately 75 volunteers, including certified and non-certified professionals, to serve as judges, timekeepers, scorekeepers, etc. during the HRGames competition held during this event – which means WE NEED YOU!!
The HRGames are a fun way to motivate and prepare students for PHR certification. Teams of up to three undergraduate students from various colleges and universities compete in a game show style format. The questions for the matches are divided into categories similar to those used in the PHR certification exam (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.
Steps to Register for Volunteers:
1. Select the Northeast Region from the drop down menu, click Go.
