Education

The Education Committee is responsible for planning and coordinating Learning Labs for TAHRA. Learning Labs offer educational opportunities to TAHRA members (and guests) by providing current, relevant, interesting "and even entertaining" information relative to the ever-changing world of Human Resources. The Committee meets once or twice per year to decide on the topics (based on member input & suggestions). Committee members secure the speakers and facilitate the Labs.
