Updates for 2025 - New Year for Big Country SHRM

Dear Big Country SHRM Members,

On behalf of the Big Country SHRM Board, I would like to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season! We hope this finds you well and filled with excitement for the year ahead.

As you prepare for the 2025 Big Country SHRM year by joining regular monthly meetings and taking advantage of our development and networking opportunities, we are excited to share details about membership and updates to meeting information with you. We are happy to announce we will be returning to the Abilene Country Club for our regular meetings. In addition, we will host two (2) virtual meetings.

Returning to the Abilene Country Club provides consistency and continuity for our members. The Board has decided to keep membership dues the same for 2025. However, monthly meeting rates will increase slightly to cover the cost of meals, quality programs and development opportunities:

We have great programs planned for 2025 and are excited about the benefits Big Country SHRM chapter membership provides. Following is a snapshot of the benefits:

Gain PDCs for attending Chapter events and meetings
15% discount on all meeting registrations
35% discount on Legal Workshop registration
Free end of year networking social along with networking opportunities at every meeting
Member lookup on website- access to HR professionals in the Big Country
Connection to National SHRM Resources
Informative monthly meetings at a discounted rate
Discounts on SHRM-CP & SCP study sessions and materials

Involvement in our local chapter provides opportunities to enhance your HR competencies, ensure you excel professionally, and keeps you up to date on issues impacting your workplace. We are grateful for your continued support and involvement in Big Country SHRM and look forward to seeing you at our meetings and events throughout the new year.

Sincerely,

Livia Martinez, BCSHRM Chapter President
