To all Tri-State Members and Website Visitors:
Welcome to the Tri-State website.
As we enter 2009, I want to wish you a Happy and Healthy New Year on behalf of the Board of Directors, and I’d like to thank you for your interest in our Chapter. We provide education, networking and support for HR professionals in our area. These take the form of workshops, the annual conference and our monthly meetings. Our meetings are normally held on the first Thursday of the month and our conference is the first Thursday in May.
Please consider joining us for any or all of these informative sessions.
We are very proud of our accomplishments as a chapter, and we recently received a Pinnacle Award from SHRM for our HR-101 for Non-Profits workshops. Only eight chapters in the country receive these awards on an annual basis, and we are very proud of this accomplishment. A special thanks goes to Theresa McGlinchey, our past President, for her tireless efforts in starting and maintaining this program.
When you attend any of our events, please be sure to find one of our Board members and introduce yourself if you are a new member, or just “kicking the tires.” We pride ourselves on our hospitality, the net-working opportunities available at our meetings, and the quality of our programming.
I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event.
Jerry Dropcho, SPHR
President

I have studied a number of topics during my time at Widener.

I am very responsible, reliable, and flexible in dealing with my job situations. I feel that because of this work while I was in school I have become very skilled in dealing with individuals needs and whishes! I have excellent references upon request and am willing to learn and be trained to become an excellent employee. I am just looking for a start where I can learn the proper business skills I need to grow in the industry.
