The Greenville Society for Human Resource Management was founded in 1947. Since its start, GSHRM has played a key role in helping Human Resource professionals increase their knowledge and skills in the Human Resource arena. Our members roles range from Human Resource Assistant to Vice President of Human Resources. Members are constantly networking to gain additional skills and knowledge.

Members are encouraged to join the Society for Human Resource Management, based in Alexandria, Virginia.
