In just a little over a week (June 1-4) ASTD will host our International Conference & Exposition in San Diego, California. With over 279 concurrent sessions, exciting general session speakers (Malcom Gladwell, Patrick Lencioni, and Kay Koplovitz to drop a few names), author signings, and networking galore, ASTD members and guests are guaranteed to have a wonderful time and great learning experience.

If you are coming to the conference (you can sign up on site if you haven't yet registered) be sure to stop by and see us at the ASTD Connection Center in the EXPO Hall. Take a few minutes to give us your story, and get your picture taken so you can be featured on the cover of T+D magazine.

We look forward to seeing you there!

ASTD has helped members forge lifelong career enhancing relationships. ASTD conferences, including ASTD TechKnowledge and the ASTD International Conference & Exposition and ASTD’s Educational Programs,  bring thousands of people together to talk about the latest development in learning and performance and to learn from professional experts.  Listen to Dave.

“ASTD provides many great professional resources and networking opportunities. I’ve met numerous professional contacts through the association. Membership has been a great asset for my personal career development. ASTD also keeps me updated on the latest industry tools and trends. At the technology conference we were able to test the newest training and development software.”

Listen to Pat.

“I discontinued my ASTD membership several years ago. Although I left, ASTD maintained its strong presence in the industry, and I recently rejoined. ASTD is the best all-in-one trainer resource providing training and development information, training, research, and ideas. Additionally, ASTD events are “the place” to network with my peers in different states and countries. The conferences are the bomb. I strongly recommend becoming an ASTD member.”
