State of the Academy
President Lane Morris wrote a State of the Academy letter for the members who attended the AHRD International Research Conference in the Americas in Knoxville, Tennessee in February. Lane completed his two year President term on the Board of Directors. We thought we would share this with you.
The Academy’s 18th Annual International Research Conference in the Americas was a tremendous success with over 350 participants from across the world. Participants included national and international HRD thought leaders and HRD practitioners, graduate students, and university faculty. The organizations represented include national and international universities, nonprofits, governments, and corporations from around the world.
