Welcome to PSHRA Chapter Channel Islands

Greetings, HR Enthusiast, and welcome to the Channel Islands Public Management Association.  Thanks for stopping by!

You’ve found the Tri-County organization that is dedicated to putting back the “Human” in Human Resources. As a former First Lady once famously remarked about the work, we HR people do, “To handle yourself, use your head; to hand others, use your heart.”

CIPMA-HR is unique.  We exist to represent the interests of Human Resource professionals across Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Louis Obispo counties.  We would be thrilled to be a resource for you and cordially invite you to one of our popular Lunch ‘n Learn bi-monthly meetings.  Come for the knowledge, stay for the buffet!  And the networking.  You’ll meet a range of fellow HR pros who will engage with you as we all learn from one another.

For many years, our members have been—and continue to be—treated to a variety of outstanding presenters on topics that run the HR gamut:

EEO, Employee Relations, Enforcement of Disciplinary Actions, Teleworking Policies, COVID Accommodation Requests, Vaccine Mandates, Hiring with Empathy, Wellness Strategies—including Meditation and Stress Reduction, Conducting Crucial Conversations during COVID and Election Year Politics, Leaves of Absences, Labor Law, Dynamic Reading Skills, COVID Lessons Learned for HR in the New Government Workplace, Automation, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of HR, among others.

Want to be part of our learning community?  We make it fun and useful!  You can join us for our next public meeting by clicking here. Or better yet, become a member and attend the Lunch ‘n Learns at a discounted rate by clicking here.

Hope to see you at our next meeting.
