HR Southwest, Human Resources Conference and Exposition, is pleased to announce the selection of Dr. Lee Tyner of the University of Central Oklahoma as the recipient of the prestigious "Educator of the Year" award. This award is given to an educator that promotes the human resources profession through education and research and that displays a commitment to the HR community.
Dr. Tyner certainly exceeds the qualifications for winning this award. After working as a human resource professional in a corporate environment for more than 10 years, Dr. Tyner received his doctorate in Human Resource Development. As an educator, he has been given the Teaching Excellence Award for 2007/2008 from the University of Central Oklahoma’s College of Business and is very involved in the development of both his students and the larger human resource community in Oklahoma. He has served as the sponsor of the University of Central Oklahoma’s HR Club since 2005, and, for each year that he has served as sponsor, this organization has received the Superior Merit Award from the Society for Human Resource Management.
HR Southwest is pleased to be able to give this award to an individual as qualified as Dr. Lee Tyner. As the recipient of this award, Dr. Tyner received a $1,000 grant to further his work in the area of human resources.
