TCSHRM understands that staying current and knowledgeable in employment and labor law legislation is critically important in our profession. We also understand that it can be difficult to not only stay current with new legislation, but also to gain the necessary understanding so you are able to apply that knowledge in your organization. For this reason, TCSHRM continues to partner with Minnesota CLE in sponsoring the annual Upper Midwest Employment Law Institute. TCSHRM members will receive a special discounted rate of $100 off their registration fee.

The Upper Midwest Employment Law Institute is the largest and best employment law conference in the nation! In addition to a thorough update on all new law developments, the conference features 100 sessions covering every aspect of employment law – giving each attendee the opportunity to choose those sessions of greatest value to them. The conference brings together plaintiff, defense, corporate and government speakers and attendees – giving you ample opportunity to hear from various viewpoints. You’ll take from the conference many new ideas to put into practice plus a wealth of resource materials – and you’ll leave reinvigorated to tackle even your toughest employment law problems.
