The 2022 Material Handling Teachers Institute (MHTI) will be held in person in Buffalo, New York from August 7 through 10. This bi-annual event integrates hands on educational sessions with field trips and group work. The focus is to strengthen the knowledge and skills of new or future educators in logistics and material handling. Networking and mentoring are an integral part as well. The Material Handling Institute, a non-profit organization with more than 700 member companies, provides for the costs of the events which means participants are only responsible for their transportation to and from Buffalo. More information, including the online application portal, will be provided soon. Participants from past MHTIs have rated it very highly and we expect the 2022 event to be equally transformational for those who participate. Please pencil the dates in your calendar if you are in the target audience of the event and share with junior colleagues and senior doctoral students as well so they can anticipate applying when the portal is open.
