How to Become a CHRM Corporate Partner

The Center for Human Resource Management (CHRM) provides strategic human resource professionals and their organizations an opportunity to participate in the transformation of the HRM field. Leading organizations dedicated to enhancing their employees’ talents will discover that partnering with the center:

• Introduces them to the next generation of HR leaders
• Exposes them to cutting-edge research
• Provides a forum to explore ideas with other like-minded companies
• Gives them the opportunity to participate in advancing the profession

Ultimately, partnering with the center is an investment in research, education and the advancement of the human resource management field. For their investment, CHRM corporate partners receive many benefits including:

• Advisory board: Corporate partners have an opportunity to participate on a rotating basis as advisors to the CHRM director, providing input on the direction and scope of the center.
• Luncheons: The Hot Topics luncheon series showcases research conducted by our faculty. Held in major cities, the series provides HR professionals an update on the latest research in the field as well as an opportunity to network among their peers.
• Visiting as an HR executive: Corporate partners have the opportunity to visit campus and share their knowledge with our students and faculty. Classroom presentations, small group discussions and receptions all provide our visiting HR executives a chance to network and exchange ideas with faculty and students.
• Spring forum/fall corporate partner meetings: Twice a year, the corporate partners gather at Mays Business School for a two-day meeting. These meetings provide corporate partners with an opportunity to hear from faculty on current research, interact with students, as well as a forum to discuss best practices.
• Involvement with the Master’s in Human Resource Management Program: CHRM partners provide valuable input into the curriculum for the MS/HRM program. Partners have the chance to get to know future HR leaders through classroom participation and receptions. This interaction also gives partners an advantage in recruiting top talent from our program.
• Working papers: Our corporate partners have direct access to research from our leading faculty through complimentary copies of their working papers.
• Former student network: Texas A&M University is known for its enthusiastic, hard-working former students. Because Mays is part of this powerful network, our corporate partners can tap our successful former students, providing a valuable resource for sharing new ideas or recruiting.
• Discounts: Corporate partners enjoy a reduced registration fees for CHRM events and conferences.
