The NOVA SHRM Sponsorship Program provides organizations that serve the HR community in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area with valuable exposure to almost 700 HR professionals. We offer a variety of sponsorship opportunities to suit the budgets and needs of any sized organization.
Why do we offer this program? One reason: To increase the quality and effectiveness of our programs to serve the needs of our members. As one of the premier HR professional organizations in the Washington region, we have experienced tremendous growth in the last few years. With this growth has come pressure to increase the cost of our events and our dues. However, we are committed to providing cost effective educational and networking events for our members. Your contributions allow us to continue to grow without sacrificing our high standards, while keeping out-of-pocket member expenses to a minimum.
In effect, this is a win-win. Our sponsors get recognition and exposure in this very active marketplace and NOVA SHRM and its members enjoy the services and benefits your sponsorship provides.
This year, we are offering the following sponsorship opportunities:
- Newsletter Advertising
- Website Sponsorship
- Executive Series Sponsorship
- Professional Development Sponsorship
- Meeting Sponsorship
- Online Resource Guide Advertising
Below, you will find additional information about each of these opportunities.
If you are interested in being a sponsor or would like any additional information on sponsorship opportunities, please contact:
