Founding CHART

Like many professional associations, CHART was founded by an informal group of peers who were passionate about their profession. In this case, the year was 1970 and this forward-thinking group already understood the connection between great people practices and organizational achievement. More importantly, they understood the critical training and human resources role in this equation. The founders held common beliefs that continuing learning, sharing information, developing personally and building relationships were vital if one wished to achieve a high standard of professionalism and contribute to their company's growth and profitability.
