Managing Benefit Costs
Thursday, September 24, 11:45 a.m.-1:00 p.m., Loveland Chamber of Commerce
Kendra Johnson, Licensed Health and Life Insurance Broker and Jessica Hergenreter, PHR

Good benefits can help you attract and retain quality employees - but providing them can be prohibitively expensive. Understand the ever-increasing challenges of offering benefits to your employees and become more educated regarding trends, plan design options, and promoting consumerism. This session will discuss Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRAs), Gap Plans, and High Deductible Health Plans (HDHPs) as a way to provide benefits and control costs.

Managing the Employee Lifecycle
Thursday, October 15, 11:45 a.m.-1:00 p.m., Loveland Chamber of Commerce
Jessica Hergenreter, PHR and Gayvaughn Marnich, SPHR

Defining the job, recruiting, on-boarding, coaching, appraising performance, rewarding, disciplining, terminating... there are a lot of ways employers interact with their employees. Each impacts the other and creates either opportunities or roadblocks to success. In this session, participants will be given a quick overview of each part of the process, and shown how it's all inter-related. Learn how to set yourself up for success with each step.
