First of all, I would like to thank Gabriele Strohschen, our Past President, for the leadership and hard work she has provided during this last year. I would also like to congratulate the Board of Directors for all their hard work in trying to revitalize AHEA and bring to reality a standalone conference in 2015.

We have begun to work diligently on putting together a very collaborative, vibrant, and informative event on the beautiful Orlando campus of the University of Central Florida.

We welcome and include all who have an interest in our purpose and mission and invite you to reach out to us in order to find out how you can get involved.

Over the course of the two-day event, I invite you to take advantage of the conference experience and to be inspired by the line-up of extraordinary keynotes and sessions, to learn from colleagues and leading experts, and to network with your peers – your best source of information.

I encourage you to take advantage our early-bird registration rates which are located on our registration page and also the excellent accommodation rates at our host hotel the Crestwood Suites Orlando-UCF.

Again, we invite you to take part in this exciting opportunity to network, learn, and collaborate. I look forward to seeing you in Orlando in March of 2015!

Please contact me at the email below if I can provide any information or answer any questions you may have.

Best Regards
Thomas D. Cox, Ed.D.
