History
The CCHRA began its formation in 1992, when several provincial associations recognized the need to collaborate on national issues and share information. They also saw the need for one organization to represent Canadian HR professionals to the federal government and coordinate the national CHRP certification (which had been adopted by several provinces). On September 15, 1994, the official constitution of the CCHRA was finalized by representatives from across the country. Two years later, Canada's national human-resources council was formally established as a collaborative effort of human-resources associations across Canada. As of 2011, the CCHRA represents more than 17,000 Certified Human Resource Professionals (CHRP) and 33,000 professionals collectively.

“The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution.

In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
