ITAC Partnership
 

The Society for Human Resource Management / ITAC Partnership

The partnership between ITAC and SHRM provides cost-savings benefits for members of both associations.

ITAC members can now join SHRM and save $15 off of their first year’s dues. Annual membership fee is now $145. ITAC members will also be able to attend the SHRM Annual Conference at a preferred rate.

The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) is the world’s largest association devoted to human resource management. Representing more than 170,000 individual members, the Society’s mission is both to serve human resource management professionals and to advance the profession. Founded in 1948, SHRM currently has more than 500 affiliated chapters within the United States and members in more than 120 countries. Visit www.shrm.org for more information.

SHRM Members can now join ITAC and save $100 off of their dues as Telework User members. Further, SHRM members do not have to join ITAC to receive 20% off the nonmember cost to purchase ITAC publications such as the highly respected Telework America Survey and Research Reports that are free to ITAC members. SHRM members can also attend ITAC’s Annual Conference at a reduced nonmember rate.

Joining ITAC as a User member provides the following benefits:

  • Enhanced Members-Only Web site: The newly expanded members-only area is where members can easily communicate and collaborate with each other, keep track of and register for meetings and events; learn about breaking ITAC news and special announcements; and access useful research and dozens of case studies.
  • User Only Services that include a Members-only User listserv and the soon to be formed Telework User Committee (TUC). Both foster community and communications among user members with common interests.
  • Telework User member companies are listed on ITAC's web site along with a link to their web site so that skilled workers interested in progressive employers can seek you out.
  • A complimentary hard copy of ITAC's renowned Telework America 2001 Research Report (priced at $499 for non-members) -- additional hard copies are only $30 each or members can receive a PDF for company distribution for $75. Members can also receive at no cost a PDF of ITAC's eWork guide available on the members-only site. The 2002 Survey will be published during the first quarter of this year and is evaluating the effect of broadband networks on how people are working from home, on the road and other locations.
  • Preferred rates to ITAC's Annual Conference. Last year's meeting took place in New York City on September 25th, with the presentations and networking reception applauded by the many members who attended this event. If you were unable to attend, please visit http://www.workingfromanywhere.org/members/, and click on "Documents" to view some of the presentations that took place during the course of the day. We are currently planning the 2003, 10th Anniversary Conference.
  • Virtual Seminars: ITAC offers a series of webinars on timely telework topics that members can attend for free or exclusively. At least 6 are planned for 2003. Our last webinar took place on November 19th which looked at how Dow Chemical converted an entire department, its sales force, to telework. Presentations from past webinars can be viewed here.
  • Access to ITAC exclusive Telework Case Studies that are summarized in the ITAC Telework News, our e-mail newsletter.
