Community of Practice Webinars and Community Meetings

Community of PracticeQueen’s IRC is pleased to bring you a series of free Community of Practice (COP) webinars and online meetings, to allow the IRC community to connect with our facilitators and discuss burning issues in labour relations, human resources and organizational development.

This is a great opportunity to connect with peers, get advice from our facilitators and learn how to approach today’s new way of working. There will be weekly opportunities to join a session via Zoom. The upcoming sessions are noted below – we expect them to run about 45 minutes each.

The format of each session will vary, and registration will be limited for some sessions. We have a waiting list in place and will schedule additional sessions (on the same topics) based on demand.

There are currently no COP webinars scheduled.

 

An Inquiry into the State of HR in Canada in 2020

An Inquiry into the State of HR in Canada in 2020We invite all HR professionals to participate in our survey on the State of Human Resources in Canada in 2020.

This survey is now closed – please watch for the executive summary of the results.

This survey follows research of the same nature that we conducted in 2011 and 2013 under the leadership of Queen’s IRC Director, Paul Juniper. We estimate it will take about 20-30 minutes of your time.

The survey has two parts. The first section asks demographic questions aimed to better understand the varied roles and responsibilities of Canada’s HR practitioners. The second section seeks perspectives on the HR profession.

For your participation, you’ll have a chance to win a $50 coffee card (ie: Tim Hortons or Starbucks). There will be an opportunity to enter the draw at the end of the survey, and there will be one $50 gift card for every 100 respondents.

We invite you to share your insights on the HR profession in Canada before the survey closes on June 30, 2020. Please pass this invitation along to any colleagues in the HR profession who could also share their insights.

Should you have any questions regarding Queen’s IRC’s practitioner-focused research, please contact our research team at IRCresearch@QueensU.ca.
