The 2020 NAKHE Annual Conference will be held January 8-11 at the Miramonte Indian Wells Resort & Spa of Indian Wells, California. This year's theme is "Leading Beyond the Campus: Driving Change as Experts". This year’s focus is on how we can succeed as entrepreneurs, as leaders of change, and how we can build the brand of our person, program, and profession. Possible topics include innovation within and external to kinesiology programs, how individuals can build their expertise and brand external to the academic institution, and new approaches to promoting kinesiology and those within the discipline.
