The Association of Caribbean Higher Education Administrators (ACHEA) was launched at an Inaugural Conference in July 2001 at the Mona Campus of The University of the West Indies.
The Association realizes that training and staff development are of paramount importance in establishing a cadre of administrators who can play a leadership role in advancing the development of regional higher education institutions.
It also recognizes that a concentrated effort has to be made to generate interest in regional tertiary level institutions not presently involved and invite their participation in the programme and objectives of ACHEA.
This would be accomplished through the mounting of workshops in selected Caribbean territories.
