Each year, the Institute hosts a Seminar which enhances the skills of leaders and prepares them to address important issues facing the history field. Participants are selected by application.

Beginning at the end of May, participants will begin a four-week seminar that includes workshops, discussions, activities, and field studies facilitated by nationally-recognized experts.
