I am grateful to the ACCT Board of Directors for supporting this giveaway so that more members can benefit from these important services."
ACCT Vice President for Membership & Educational Services Robin Matross Helms, Ph.D., hosted today's event. "It's exciting to be able to give back to the ACCT membership," she said. "Our priority is forging stronger and deeper holistic relationships with our members to support good governance through best practices and through peer-to-peer knowledge sharing."
“Board development is considered a standard of good governance practice, and facilitated board trainings and retreats can strengthen communication and understanding among board members,” said ACCT Director of Retreats and Evaluation Services Colleen Allen. “This can lead to a stronger, more effective working group. Boards that engage in training and professional development also set a model for the rest of the institution.”
