WI SHRM HR Student Conference Scheduled for April 6th
The WI State Council SHRM Student Conference & Case Competition will take place on Saturday April 6, 2024, at Moraine Park Technical College in Beaver Dam.
In this “realistic job preview” competition, SHRM students will be able to coordinate teams and leverage knowledge acquired through their studies and apply it to a realistic HR situation likely to be encountered in the work world. This competition requires integrated HR thinking, ethical decision-making, and strong communications and presentation skills.
Prior to the actual event, SHRM students that would like to compete in the Case Competition will be provided with a business case study 2 weeks before the event. Each team will analyze the case study and come up with a solution, preparing both a written executive summary and PowerPoint slides to be included in a 15-minute presentation to be submitted prior to the event. Through a panel of judges, prizes will be awarded to the top team!
In addition to the Case Competition, SHRM students and professional volunteers will get to network, make connections and see presentations from some top tier speakers who will help our student participants make stronger connections around how to prepare and lead in the world of HR as a current student.

- Make connections in SHRM amongst both student and professional members from across the state of Wisconsin.
