ATD's members come from more than 120 countries and work in public and private organizations in every industry sector. ATD supports the work of professionals locally with more than 125 chapters, international strategic partners, and global member networks.

For the past 75 years, we have supported those who develop talent in the workplace to help create a world that works better.
