Black Country

Welcome to the Black Country branch of the CIPD.

I hope you can join us at one of our forthcoming events where you can explore business and HR issues with like-minded, local HR professionals and have an opportunity to network.

The branch aims to offer a range of events aimed at both HR generalists and specialists. We very much welcome your ideas for  future events or suggestions for speakers, so do please use the 'contact us' facility to get in touch.  

The committee is always keen hear from members who would like to volunteer to help run the branch and invites anyone who is interested to come along to a committee meeting to learn more about what this entails.

Branch Communications - The Demise of the Postcard 

I hope all members will sign up to receive branch emails as this is the only way we can contact you directly to provide information about forthcoming events. Traditionally, we sent out postcards to remind members about events but this has been replaced by emails. Of course, details of events can be found on the branch website but not all members visit the site on a regular basis and it is easy to miss a presentation or workshop you might be interested in attending. The signing up process does not take long, it is free and we promise not to inundate you with branch emails. 

If you have not already done so, why not sign up right now? Click on the Branch updates box on this page.

I hope to see you at a forthcoming event.

Best wishes

Raj Joshi

Chair

 

Keeping in Touch with Branch Events

You can now receive regular updates from the Black Country CIPD branch.

Your Branch Events is a locally produced email containing the latest news and updates. This will act as an event reminder and will provide information on any last minute changes or cancellations.

Your Policy Update is a less frequent email providing you with the latest policy updates and gives you an opportunity to engage in consultations.

Anyone can subscribe to either or both email updates and to as many branches as they wish. Be sure to sign up for this as it’s the only way your branch can contact you via email. Subscribing to Your Branch Updates is free, so sign up today! See the box on this page.
