THIBODAUX, La. — Nicholls State University’s student Society for Human Resource Management chapter won the state championship at the Louisiana Human Resource Case Competition for the second year in a row.
During the Nov. 3 competition, the Nicholls chapter presented the top solutions for the mock case, which was held in Baton Rouge.
“The value of this event goes beyond what they receive in the classroom,” said Melanie Boudreaux, faculty sponsor and instructor of management. “The CASE competition helps our students tie together everything they learned in their classes, and it lets them actually apply the material.”
With 120 active members, the Nicholls SHRM chapter is the largest in the state.
The Society for Human Resources Management helps to enhance the students’ real-world human resources experience through attending various events and workshops, including conferences, an etiquette dinner, resume workshops, and mock interviews, among others.
