About
From the beginning in 1943, a new type of meeting was generated. No formal organization–no speeches–no dues. Its purpose was to swap ideas and exchange experiences which resulted in fostering more effective training techniques and to aid in the solution of difficult training problems.
The AART was on its way………
Today, even though the organization now collects dues to help defray the cost of the annual meeting, the focus of the AART still remains the sharing of best practices and the improvement of knowledge transfer within organizations. During our annual meeting we hold discussions on topics of interest to the membership, we share ideas and experiences, we visit companies to learn and see how they are training their people, and we hear from leading experts on training theory and research.
We are a 501 (c)(6) organization with a Constitution and Bylaws incorporated under the laws of the state of Pennsylvania. The membership elects an Executive Committee every two years to provide organizational guidance but all decisions are made by majority vote of the membership.
