Three major AFLA events have been scheduled for the year, which will kick off on March 19, 2019 with the 2019 AFLA Forum on Big Data, which is designed to teach fleet managers how to better manage their operations using large amounts of information available to them, according to AFLA. Sessions covered during the forum will include leveraging Big Data for total cost of ownership, safety, and operational efficiency. Registration for the forum is now open.

Later in the year, during August 11 – 17, 2019, AFLA will be hosting its week-long Mini-MBA program, which is designed to educate fleet professionals and advance their knowledge and help them grow in the industry, according to AFLA. It will be led by professors who are experienced in the classroom and in the business world, and is designed for current and future leaders in the fleet industry. More details will be announced later in the year, and the organization is now accepting applications.

AFLA will round out its 2019 events with the 2019 AFLA Conference, which will be held this year at the Arizona Grand Resort in Phoenix, Arizona. Registration for the conference is available here.
