Congratulations to the October Chapter of the Month: The Greater Chattanooga Area Chapter!

The value of membership is a key driver for the Greater Chattanooga Area Chapter of ASTD. The chapter’s selection as Chapter of the Month for October 2009 derives from a two-fold commitment to membership. First, the chapter has created a Board of Director’s position called CORE (Chapter Operating Requirements) Coordinator. The CORE Coordinator is responsible for educating chapter members about CORE statistics and tracking the chapter’s annual progress in achieving 100 percent CORE.

In addition, the Greater Chattanooga Area Chapter is committed to bringing members value at every turn. Upon realizing that monthly chapter meetings were not providing enough networking time for members, the chapter created a Membership Networking Directory that includes the professional experience and contact information of all members and is thus a tremendous resource for members to expand and improve their networking contacts.  The chapter continues to work for deeper connections with members through various committee opportunities and participation in community service events.

Chapter President Teresa Headrick believes that being a professional society in a smaller city gives the Greater Chattanooga Area Chapter the opportunity to offer learning professionals in the area a great venue for improving skills and gaining insights into the profession. The chapter’s commitment to members and the community at large is why the Greater Chattanooga Area Chapter  is ASTD’s Chapter of the Month for October.
