About this Program

The ASTD Training Certificate content is practical and grounded in the real world, not just academic theory. ASTD uses all of the latest tools and research available to deliver training that delivers results on the job. The ASTD Training Certificate focuses on what happens before, during, and after you deliver training, and what to do if training is not the right solution. Through the hallmark ASTD Competency Study, we gathered input from more than 3,600 learning and development professionals to identify the competencies required by the successful practitioners of tomorrow. The ASTD Competency Study forms the foundation of the ASTD Training Certificate.

This is a certificate program and the ASTD Training Certificate is awarded to participants upon successful completion of the program.
