SHRA Member Benefits

Membership with SHRA is an investment in your career for many reasons. SHRA provides a forum for access to and exchange of information, promotes the development and application of proactive Human Resources concepts, and creates a better understanding for the general public of the importance and function of Human Resources roles.

As a member of our SHRM affiliated chapter, you will be involved in a professional network that offers many benefits including:

• Discounted cost and invitation to nine monthly meetings where dynamic leaders in the field of Human Resources provide current relevant information that will keep you up-to-date on a variety of topics. Meetings are held each month from September through June, excluding one month due to the Granite State Human Resources Conference. Our monthly meetings are HRCI & SHRM approved!
• Membership reciprocity with the five other NH SHRM affiliated chapters: HR Association of Greater Concord, Greater Monadnock SHRM, Manchester Area HR Association, Greater Nashua HR Association, and Greater Merrimack Valley HR Association. All NH SHRM affiliated chapter members can attend a chapter meeting at the listed Member price instead of the Non-Member price.
