It’s no secret that the way we work is changing, and the same is true for how we do events.
Just like most workplaces went online in 2020 and 2021, many human resources events have gone virtual the past two years, with some now beginning to return in person.
With so much changing, keeping up with the human resources industry can be tough! But don’t worry—we’ve found the best human resource conferences in 2022 for you to check out and stay up-to-date with the latest trends in HR.
There are some things you can get from a conference you just can’t get anywhere else.
On top of being a great way to network with other human resources professionals, attending conferences helps you stay familiar with the latest trends, tech, and best practices. You also get the opportunity to learn from HR leaders in sessions and workshops and even get actionable insights from industry experts that aren’t being offered anywhere else.
Not to mention that making an appearance at these events keeps you more active and relevant in the HR industry, leading to better opportunities over time. Many conferences also offer training certification credits from the Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM) and the HR Certification Institute (HRCI).
And since many of these are hybrid or online HR conferences, you just might be able to get all of these benefits while sitting at home! (WFH pants for the win!)

Now that you’re ready to check out some of 2022’s best HR events, here are some tips to keep in mind:
You’ll also want to consider whether virtual or in-person is the best fit for you. Virtual conferences are convenient and often cheaper, but in-person conferences can have better engagement and more natural networking and professional development opportunities. Know your priorities before registering!
Ultimately, you want to attend conferences that focus on the discussions you care about and will keep you up to date with the latest, innovative ideas in a fast-moving industry.
For instance, at last year’s HR Tech conference, Clovers launched its flagship product, an interview intelligence platform that uses human and conversational intelligence to accelerate hiring, uncover bias, and put the right people in the right roles.
Ultimately, attending industry conferences gives us the chance to build a community—and after these past two years, we’ve learned just how important those connections can be. But we’ve also learned that it’s possible to form them in all sorts of ways, whether you’re sitting next to someone in a session or miles away behind a screen. So here’s to 2022, and everything it brings!
But you don’t have to wait for the next conference to see Clovers’ technology.
