FREE Webinar: The Strategic Hire You’re Overlooking: How One Student Can Change Your Team

DATE: May 12th 2026
  10:00 am to 11:00 am
CHAPTER: Webinar
LANGUAGE: English

In a rapidly shifting labour market, organizations are searching for innovative strategies to remain competitive, agile, and future‑focused. One of the most effective yet underutilized approaches is the intentional hiring of students through internships, co‑ops, and other work‑integrated learning (WIL) experiences. Students bring immediate value: fresh perspectives, digital fluency, adaptability, and contemporary training aligned with emerging industry needs. When organizations create meaningful roles for student talent, they not only address short‑term capacity challenges but also build long‑term talent pipelines that strengthen retention and workforce readiness.

Drawing on real‑world examples and evidence‑based best practices, this presentation demonstrates how student hiring is not simply a recruitment tactic—it is a proactive workforce development strategy. Attendees will leave with clear, practical frameworks to maximize the value of student talent and strengthen their organization’s competitiveness in a rapidly evolving world of work.





Free National Webinar: Different Path to HR Leadership

DATE: May 20th 2026
  2:00 pm to 3:30 pm
CHAPTER: Webinar
LANGUAGE: English
In recognition of International HR Day, join us for a national conversation with HR leaders from across Canada who share one common credential: the CPHR designation. This virtual panel brings together Chartered Professionals in Human Resources (CPHRs) from different provinces and career paths to reflect on how their journeys into HR unfolded, how they built credibility over time, and the role the CPHR designation has played in shaping their professional impact.

Rather than focusing on a single definition of leadership, panelists will share real experiences from their careers, including key turning points, lessons learned, and the ways the CPHR designation has supported their growth, confidence, and influence as HR professionals.
 

During this panel, CPHR panelists will explore

  • Their unique paths into HR leadership and what shaped them most
  • How earning the CPHR designation influenced their confidence, credibility, and career progression
  • Moments where professional standards and ethics guided difficult decisions
  • How expectations of HR leadership have evolved over time
  • Advice for HR professionals considering or working toward the CPHR designation

Do your operational leaders hear "psychological safety" and assume it means a soft, conflict-free workplace? While HR knows it drives performance, a language gap often exists. True psychological safety allows teams to:

• Take risks without fear of backlash
• Own mistakes and learn fast
• Challenge ideas and speak openly

Join us to learn examples and language that move operational leaders past the "political correctness" stigma to seeing it as a key factor in business success. Equip your leaders with the tools to create safe environments and watch your people and business thrive as a result.
