Carroll County SHRM Wins Platinum Excel Award for 2018
Carroll County SHRM Awarded For Elevating Human Resources, Improving Workplaces
Westminster, MD, May 31, 2019 — SHRM (the Society for Human Resource Management) recently awarded Carroll County SHRM its prestigious EXCEL Platinum Award for the chapter’s accomplishments in 2018.
The EXCEL award aligns individual chapters’ and state councils’ activities with SHRM’s aspirations for the HR profession. The award recognizes major accomplishments, strategic activities, and tactical initiatives that elevate the profession of human resources.
"So much of SHRM’s success in shaping better workplaces—where employers and employees can thrive together— is owed to the hard work of our chapters and state councils such as Carroll County SHRM. Through their courage and leadership, Carroll County SHRM is driving true, measurable progress toward the healthy, productive, and dynamic workplaces of tomorrow,” said Johnny C. Taylor, Jr., SHRM-SCP, president and chief executive officer of SHRM. “Awarding this Platinum Excel Award is just one small way for SHRM to recognize and celebrate the big steps this chapter has taken this past year.”
The EXCEL Award can be earned at four levels: bronze, silver, gold and platinum. Each level has a prescribed set of requirements and accomplishments that must be met. Carroll County SHRM will receive recognition in SHRM publications and at conferences, a logo to display on its website, and information to share with its members about the significance of this award.
Each year we strive to support the SHRM Foundation, increase membership, and engage in local government affairs. In 2018 we were also worked on community engagement by partnering with our chamber of commerce in sponsoring a local workplace violence event at the community college. In the future we look forward to making new partnerships within our community to engage HR professionals.
