Who we are...

The Society for Human Resource Management of Greater Kansas City (SHRM-KC) is a professional association dedicated to the advancement and support of the human resources profession. SHRM-KC promotes excellence in human resource management practices through education, advocacy, and leadership Development. SHRM-KC began in 1953 as the Personnel Management Association (PMA). In 1954, PMA was chartered with ASPA (American Society of Personnel Administration) now known as the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). SHRM-KC was the fifth chapter chartered in the United States. SHRM-KC will be celebrating our 70th year as one of the oldest, and largest trade associations in the greater Kansas City area.
