General Membership Meeting (GMMs)

Alternately sponsored by different industry groups and PMAP committees, monthly luncheon meetings give members a chance to get first-hand information on current issues from the leaders and policy-makers in industry, government, and society in general. At the same time, the GMMs provide a venue where members can enhance their professional network and personal friendships with their colleagues from the HRM profession.

Annual Conference (AC)

This is an annual convention of the entire membership of the Association that brings together the wealth of the country’s HRM expertise. Also open to non-member HRM practitioners, government sector representatives, and the members of the academe. The AC aims to chart the directions and strategies to be taken in addressing common and critical issues in HRM. The AC is usually held out of Metro Manila and combines social, sports and fellowship activities with comprehensive and in-depth technical sessions.

PMAP Awards Programs

Institutionalized in 1977, the PMAP Awards Program gives recognition to outstanding achievers whose leadership, dynamism and professionalism set apart some corporations and individuals as a breed all their own. Corporate and Individual Awards – the most coveted of which are the “Employer of the Year” and the “People Manager of the Year” – are given annually for remarkable achievements that measure up to the high standards of PMAP. Past winners of these awards include some of the most respected organizations and individuals from the Philippines business.

Corporate Social Responsibility Committee

PMAP is continuously doing its share in promoting and advancing the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) among its members through workshops and seminars on developing and implementing CSR programs. The Association also embarks on its own CSR and community relations programs focusing on immediate need areas such as livelihood development, environmental protection, employment generation, educational scholarship, and social service linkages.

Center for Human Resource Management (CHRM)

More recently, an additional affiliated body in PMAP emerged with the conception of the Center for Human Resource Management (CHRM). Led by a preliminary Board of Trustees, the CHRM is tasked with formulating the policies, thrusts and strategies of creating an HR school, the first ever in the country. The school will be granting graduate degrees in the near future, with its educational core drawn from the collective expertise of seasoned HR practitioners from within the ranks of PMAP.

The CHRM serves as the training and development arm of the Association. The CHRM plans, conducts and evaluates the training and professional development programs of PMAP, in response to the needs of HRM executives and managers, officers and staff of member-companies, and independent HRM practitioners.

Throughout the year, PMAP presents a varied menu of development programs focusing on specific areas of HRM practice. Non-curricular programs are the training seminars and workshops conducted on a monthly basis by expert HRM practitioners from the ranks of PMAP members. Whether for professional or personal development, members enjoy substantial discounts on all CHRM programs and other development activities.

Curricular programs, on the other hand, are the certificate courses conducted in PMAP-partner schools, and which lead to the completion of a Diploma in HRM (DHRM) degree. The DHRM program aims to fulfill the need of HR practitioners to sharpen their skills in HRM and expand their knowledge of the profession. The collaborating schools include Pamantasanng Makati, Jose Rizal University, University of Sto. Tomas, Mirriam College, and more recently, San Beda-Alabang – to cater to our members from South Manila.

As an exclusive service to members, PMAP offers scholarships to the DHRM Program to deserving junior HR practitioners in the partner school of their choice.

For companies with specific training needs, the CHRM also develops tailor-fit training programs and conducts these as in-house seminars.

Investor in People (IiP) Standard Certification

The IiP is an international quality benchmark that helps organizations meet their aims and objectives through effective people management. Developed during the 1990s, the IiP currently enjoys wide recognition in the European Union and Australia as well as increasing presence in New Zealand, Jersey and Chile to name a few.

PMAP, in cognizance of its unwavering pursuit for the continual development of human resource practices, is currently the country’s sole certifying body of the Investor in People (IiP) Standard. As such, PMAP provides advisory and consultancy support as well as assessments to organizations that commit to take the journey towards IiP recognition.

Junior PMAP (JPMAP)

The Association is involved in youth development through its Junior PMAP (JPMAP) arm, with the aim of raising future people managers imbibed at the onset with the ideals of PMAP. The JPMAP itself is a microcosm of the totality of PMAP as it maintains its own committees, conducts monthly meetings and a national conference, and its membership roster coming from colleges and universities nationwide.

Society of Fellows (SOF)

The Philippine Society of Fellows (PSOF) is an affiliated body in PMAP that offers opportunities for further professional growth of individual HRM practitioners. Membership to PSOF requires the fulfillment of certain sets of professional standards and accomplishments.
