CHICAGO (October 13, 2004) -- Human Resource Executive® magazine will be awarding the Top Human Resource and Training Products of 2004 during an awards luncheon today at the 7th Annual HR Technology Conference & Exposition®, the premier destination for HR decision-makers. The awards luncheon will be held from 12:15 to 1:45 p.m. at McCormick Place in Chicago.
"For more than 16 years, Human Resource Executive® magazine has made these awards after thorough briefings and demonstrations with our editors," said David Shadovitz, conference chairman and magazine editor and publisher. "This is the first time the awards will be presented during the HR Technology Conference®, and the first time the top HR products and top training products will be announced in the same issue of the magazine. A record number of companies entered products, and we feel honoring the top products during the conference will give HR's top decision-makers a chance to learn more about these innovators."

"In all cases, we feel strongly that these products deliver value to HR professionals, but, as always, we continue to stress the importance of conducting the necessary due diligence before making investments."
