WHAT IS THE GOAL:
There are currently 53 students enrolled in the HRD PhD program at UT Tyler Soules College of Business. Our goal is to send 10 students to the 2022 conference at a cost of $1,000 per student.
We are thrilled to announce that the Soules College of Business Dean’s office has approved $4,370 co-curricular dollars to be allocated for the Academy of HRD Conference to help with registration, travel, and lodging for students!
This means that our original goal of $10,000 has now been adjusted to $5,630.
Thank you for making your gift today and sharing this with others to help us reach our 2022 goal! Talons Up!
