The APS-HRMnet Executive is convinced that forming local chapters will expand its membership and this
will subsequently support achievement of the objectives of the network at local level to suit peculiarities
of each country across the continent. The network therefore approved a structure that allows each
country to form a Country Chapter.

These guidelines provide parameters that will be used to standardize the process of establishing
APS-HRMnet Country/Local chapters and growing them, keeping in mind various country regulatory and policy frameworks.
