The agenda is now available for the 13th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition … and it's our best in 13 years! Yes, the best in the world has gotten better.
In addition to focusing on three critical areas in HR technology – Talent Management, Social Media and HCM & Workforce Planning – we’re revisiting the more traditional functional areas that may have plagued you for years.
Plus, you’ll get more interactivity than ever before with a program that includes 6 panel discussions, 3 debates and 4 sessions of vendor shootouts – all with chances for you to ask your specific questions. Not to mention our hands-on Twitterversity training class that will turn you into a pro in just 75 minutes on this fast-growing technology.
