Each year, the SHRM Hawaii Educational Foundation awards scholarships to people within our HR community for attendance at our Annual State Conference & Expo. We were very fortunate to receive many applications this year, and it was a tight judging process for our committees. After careful consideration, we are pleased to announce the SHCX 2023 scholarship recipients. One of this year’s scholarship award winners is our own staff member Lexi Albite-Ruiz. Congratulations!
