About the American Management Association
The American Management Association traces its origins to 1913, when the National Association of Corporate Schools, later known as the National Association of Corporation Training, was founded. In 1922, this group merged with the American Industrial Relations Association, which had been founded in 1918 as the National Association of Employment Managers, to form the National Personnel Association. In 1923, the group took on a new name that reflected its policies and history:
the American Management Association.
