The award winner will also be encouraged to share their teaching innovation via a presentation during the pre-conference activities at the Academy meeting that takes place one year after receiving the award.
In support of the HR Division's goal of increasing member involvement and its international reach, we strongly encourage submissions that reflect the rich diversity, backgrounds, and perspectives of our membership.
