June Online Chapter Event - Storytelling and Learning

Join us online for our monthly Chapter Meeting:

Storytelling and Learning

Everyone has a story to tell. Our narrative is one of overcoming obstacles and achieving goals. This program will provide key components to storytelling and how you can use these tools to ensure a consistent, authentic voice for your organization.

The learning in this session supports the ATD Professional Capability in Training Delivery & Facilitation.
