2020

Lubbock,Texas

The year everyone went virtual.

2020 will be one for the record books, whether we want to remember or not? With COVID-19 overtaking the world, the 2020 Symposium was first postponed from May to August. Then the Symposium pivoted to our first Virtual Conference experience. We had great Keynote sessions presented by Tony Bridwell, Kirby Hocutt, and Jimmy Taylor, and over 24 breakout sessions! With over 200 virtual attendees from across Texas, we managed to turn 2020 into a memorable event.

2019

Lubbock,Texas

Every great story has a beginning.

The inaugural West Texas HR Symposium was an idea to bring together four local chapters of Texas SHRM to create a regional event to serve HR professionals located throughout a growing yet remote part of the state of Texas. Together with the support of the Texas Workforce Commission’s Texas Business Conference, the 2019 WTXHRS took place on August 22nd & 23rd in the High Plains of West Texas at the Overton Hotel & Conference Center in Lubbock, TX.
