*After much deliberation, we have made the following adjustments to our 2020 HR Case Competition & Conference!
Due to COVID-19 and Purdue University Policies, the 2020 HR Case Competition will now be fully virtual, and the HR Conference is cancelled for this year. Also, due to budgetary constraints and university guidelines, the award amount(s) will be reduced. Consequently, registration fees will also be adjusted accordingly. The 2020 HR Case Competition will simply be a much shorter online version.
We still expect our 2020 HR Case Competition to be held to the upmost quality. Please be assured that our committee is working very hard to ensure this becomes a smooth transition and process for all our participants. Our goal is offering all participants an excellent experience, but on a much smaller, virtual scale.
As always, thank you to our corporate sponsors for your continuous support of Purdue’s Krannert School of Management. We thank everyone for their patience, and hope to see you all virtually in November!
