HR Technology Conference & Expo

Now – more than ever – is a critical time for you to attend the 12th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition.

After the economic shocks of the winter, everyone in HR is getting back to work. But you face the new realities of innovating by looking at lower-cost technologies, rethinking business processes, and consolidating where possible.

So this year, the world’s #1 HR technology event focuses our education efforts on just that: helping you learn what all the smartest leaders are doing.

Those are just a few of our goals for you. To learn more, first read about some of our favorite sessions and then our complete agenda.

After 12 years, no one disputes we are the best conference in the world for what you need to learn today about technology.

This year, of all years, we’ve worked even harder to earn your attendance and help you make the case for joining us. In the spring, many organizations were already easing travel restrictions. Don’t assume you can’t attend tomorrow simply because you may not be allowed to today.

Whether times are good, bad or recovering in September, we are still the conference for you to attend. First because our program is created by experts who know what's important in every aspect of technology for HR. And our sessions are delivered by senior executives — 48 of our 57 presenters are VPs or higher, including 21 CEOs — from the world's leading companies.

Plus, our show floor is the largest in the world: 230 vendors in 2008 and holding well this year. You can become the wisest shopper there by comparing nearly every competing product in any category. Plus many exhibitors bring their CEOs, so you can talk to the top dog, not just to a salesperson.

If you’re still not convinced we’re the best, read the opinions of various analysts who blogged about the 2008 event: Vinnie Mirchandani of Deal Architect, Jason Corsello of Knowledge Infusion, Zach Thomas of Forrester Research, Jim Holincheck of Gartner, Mark Smith of Ventana Research, and Brian Sommer of TechVentive.

Register today and join us for Human Resource Executive®'s 12th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition, September 30 – October 2, 2009 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. Click here to request a copy of the printed brochure.

In a webcast interview last year, Workday and PeopleSoft founder Dave Duffield said we’re the one conference everyone goes to because everyone is there.

While it’s certainly nice to be so popular, HR Technology continues to be the world’s biggest and best event of its kind because it’s created by experts who know exactly what you need to learn today and are dedicated to helping you learn it.

		Now – more than ever – is a critical time for you to attend the 12th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition. After the economic shocks of the winter, everyone in HR is getting back to work. But you face the new realities of innovating by looking at lower-cost technologies, rethinking business processes, and consolidating where possible. So this year, the world’s #1 HR technology event focuses our education efforts on just that: helping you learn what all the smartest leaders are doing. First, we know they’re still buying new HR software and services. Vendors’ quarterly reports to Wall Street make that certain. That’s why we’ll continue to focus on the three hottest areas in HR technology: Talent Management, Web 2.0, and Workforce Management/Analytics/Planning. Second, they are optimizing the investments made during the last four years: Our Second Annual Talent Management Panel will center on that challenge, as will others. Third, tight times are no excuse for standing still. They are innovating without a big software and services budget. And we’ll show you how with Web 2.0, including creating a private corporate social network for free! And learn from Web 2.0 pioneers in HR. Fourth, they are controlling costs with Workforce Management. The administrative tasks of Time & Attendance, Absence Management, Scheduling and Optimization have new urgency after so many layoffs. You’ll learn how to help manage the workforce more carefully than ever before. Those are just a few of our goals for you. To learn more, first read about some of our favorite sessions and then our complete agenda.
