New Journal Alert!
For some time now I have been speaking with several of my colleagues about the fact that there are no academic journals that focus specifically on nonprofit education. Although there are several scholars in the field who conduct research in this area, there have been no academic publications devoted specifically to learning and education in the sector. This is unlike in the field of management where several journals (e.g., Management Learning, Academy of Management Learning and Education, etc.) are specifically devoted to the academic nature of management.
Thankfully, however, the nonprofit sector can now claim an education journal as well!
While at this year’s ARNOVA conference I learned of a new journal focused on nonprofit education and leadership. And, given the placement of my degree program (in a school of Education) and the nature of my degree (focused on leadership), I was more than happy to hear this news.
The journal, which is called: The Journal of Nonprofit Education & Leadership is a collaborative effort between Western Kentucky University Foundation and American Humanics.
I look forward to seeing how this journal develops and the impact that it will have on the field of nonprofit and philanthropic education.
