As the governing voice of CPHR Alberta, the Board of Directors meet quarterly to provide oversight and guidance in several key areas. The Board, alongside CPHR Alberta operations, continues to deliver on the association's strategic priorities developed in the 2020 strategic plan. To ensure transparency between our Board of Directors, members and key stakeholders, we share post-meeting messages to inform the steps taken towards advancing our profession and ensuring a financially stable association. The Board of Directors met on June 24, 2025, and the Board’s key messages are as follows: Financial Update CPHR Alberta remains in a stable financial position with a forecasted break-even year-end as per the approved Budget. The Board reappointed Cascade Chartered Professional Accountants LLP as auditor for 2025–2027. Strategic Planning The Board held a focused one-day Strategic Refocus Workshop to explore how CPHR Alberta delivers value to its members. This work will guide the development of an updated three-year strategic plan, aligned with the evolving needs of the profession. Self-Regulation The Professional Governance Act received Royal Assent in May 2025 and Royal Proclamation expected for Spring 2026. CPHR Alberta anticipates review of its self-regulation application in Spring 2027. Ongoing work focuses on legislative alignment, internal readiness, and member communications. CPHR Alberta Conference Join us at the CPHR Alberta 2025 Conference, Human-Centric HR on September 23–24 in Edmonton.
