South Dakota DLR Launches New HR Training Session
The South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation (DLR) is set to host a new installment in its Workforce Knowledge Series, targeting professionals who manage Human Resources (HR) responsibilities on their own. The upcoming session, titled “HR Department of One: Strategies for Success,” will be held virtually on Thursday, July 10, at 11:30 a.m. CDT / 10:30 a.m. MDT via Microsoft Teams.
This free session is tailored specifically for individuals running solo HR departments, offering them strategic insights and actionable tools to better navigate key areas such as compliance, hiring practices, and long-term planning.
Registration and Event Details
Participants interested in attending the session must register in advance. Registration can be completed by clicking the “Register Now” button located on the DLR’s official Event Calendar Entry. A mySD single sign-on account is required to complete the registration process.
Once registered, attendees will receive two emails: one with a link to the Microsoft Teams session and another with a calendar invitation to help them schedule the event. The DLR emphasizes the importance of early registration to ensure a seamless experience on the day of the event.
Supporting HR Professionals in Small Organizations
Managing HR responsibilities solo can be a daunting task, particularly for professionals in smaller companies or organizations with limited resources. This session aims to bridge knowledge gaps and equip attendees with practical tools and strategies to perform their roles more effectively.
Topics that will be covered include:
- Understanding and maintaining regulatory compliance
- Streamlining recruitment and onboarding processes
- Implementing strategic workforce planning
- Balancing administrative duties with long-term HR goals
Whether you’re new to HR or a seasoned professional handling the department alone, the session provides a valuable opportunity to learn best practices and connect with experts in the field.
About the Workforce Knowledge Series
The Workforce Knowledge Series is an ongoing initiative by the South Dakota Department of Labor and Regulation. It is designed to offer expert-led sessions that address various employment and workplace topics. The series aims to provide valuable insights, tools, and resources to help South Dakota businesses tackle common workforce challenges.
Past sessions have covered a wide range of subjects, including employee retention, operational efficiency, and labor law updates. The series continues to evolve, reflecting current workforce trends and needs.
Why This Session Matters
Solo HR professionals often wear multiple hats—from compliance officer and recruiter to strategist and employee liaison. Without a team to rely on, staying on top of every aspect of HR can be overwhelming. This session is designed to provide these professionals with community support and expert guidance, helping them feel less isolated in their roles.
By focusing on real-world scenarios and offering actionable advice, the DLR hopes to empower attendees with the knowledge and confidence needed to enhance their organizational impact.
Contact and Additional Resources
For more information or if you have questions about the event, individuals are encouraged to contact a local Job Service office. These offices can provide assistance with registration, technical support, or additional resources relevant to your HR needs.
