20+ exciting HR conferences to attend in 2020

Picture of Julie Ho
While reading the paper the other morning (a.k.a. scrolling through my LinkedIn feed), I saw Laura Sturmer shared a list of business events in Toronto. This list covered a wide variety of su-topics, from marketing, PR, AI, programming, career coaching and I thought: this is extremely helpful and a huge time-saver with regards to researching and planning my schedule.
 
As an avid list-maker myself, I want to do the same thing for HR/recruitment conferences. When I first started in this industry I was amazed at the tremendous number of learning and networking opportunities it has to make sure the “people" element of the company is well taken care of.
 
The coast-to-coast conferences list below covers an array of topics for HR professionals including recruiting/ talent acquisition, employer branding, employee relations, benefits & compensation, and HR technology.
 
This list will be updated every two weeks, so please feel free to let me know if there is any event you want to add to the list!
