-The American Arbitration Association was founded in 1926 through the merger of the Arbitration Society of America, the Arbitration Foundation and the Arbitration Conference following the enactment of the Federal Arbitration Act in 1925. At the time of its establishment, the association's National Panel of Arbitrators is composed of 480 arbitrators. The first Code of Arbitration Practice and Procedure of the American Arbitration Association was published in 1931. In 1932, the Accident Claims Tribunal of the AAA was created followed by the Inter-American Commercial Arbitration Commission in 1934, Voluntary Labor Arbitration Tribunal in 1937. In 1952, AAA and Japan Commercial Arbitration signed an agreement allowing the use of arbitration clauses in Japan-American trade contracts where disputes may be resolved in tribunals located in New York or Tokyo. The AAA co-sponsored the First National Women's Arbitrator Development Program in 1979 to train and recruit qualified women arbitrators. Over the years, AAA's National Panel Arbitrators increased. In 1995 alone, its' total number of arbitrators was 27, 350.<ref>[http://www.lectlaw.com/files/adr07.htm History of the AAA & Alternative Dispute Resolution]</ref> In 2009, the Association established the AAA A.
