Next years' 1A Institute will be held on July 23-25, at the Four Seasons Resort in Las Colinas, Texas (same location as 2011).

The Institute also provides participants with the opportunity to become acquainted with leaders of the 1A Athletic Director Profession, as well as colleagues from other 1A Universities.
We would like your nominations for those qualified Associate Athletic Directors who you wish to recommend as participants at the 2012 Institute. Participants from previous years are welcome and encouraged to participate in the 2012 Institute, because the primary focus of the Institute is to provide the participants with the most current information available on each topic of the curriculum.
Please contact the Association Office if you have questions.
