This focused education is provided by experienced financial professionals who are recognized by The Institute as qualified instructors.

PSHRM is partnering with ACT II Playhouse, an arts organization that seeks to support HR professionals who seek ways to nurture employees creatively, socially, and ultimately, professionally. Studies have shown that companies which engage their employees in events outside the workplace have higher employee retention rates, since employees are happier with their jobs and feel valued by their employer. Partnering with Act II Playhouse provides PSHRM members and their respective companies with:
An opportunity to purchase reduced-price tickets for staff
An opportunity to host a variety of events in their theatre
Corporate signage opportunities which, as a 501(c)(3) organization, helps provide them with financial support
