Presenters and Facilitators

ATD Central Indiana aligns our programming to the three key Domains of Practice including 1) Building Personal Capability, 2) Developing Professional Capability, and 3) Impacting Organizational Capability.  Our members are both practitioners and consultants who have discovered best practices and impactful stories to share with our members. What have you and/or members of your organization recently accomplished that would benefit our membership? Come share your story in either our monthly program or community of practice formats. 

Task-Based Activities

We recognize and honor that the lives of our members are busy and lesser commitments could be more appropriate.  Within any area of our chapter, there are always specific tasks that would benefit from the time and talent of a volunteer.  Examples include curating digital files in a central repository, writing copy  for communications, and reviewing/compiling data.   These tasks usually require just an hour or two a week. 

Mentoring Relationships

ATD Central Indiana membership is a fantastic network where you are likely to find an opportunity to either serve as a mentor or be mentored.  

Ready to Pay It Forward?

You may be thinking “I’m not sure how I could help.” That’s fair!  We will gladly arrange time for a conversation to explore best fit based on your interests, your skills, and your commitment level to the Chapter.  Will you take a minute now to reach out and begin this process of exploration?
