ATD Capability Model
Each ATD-OC Learning Event will be aligned to at least one Talent Development Capability, as identified by ATD National.
This program aligns with:
Building Personal Capability:
Developing Professional Capability:
- Career & Leadership Development
Impacting Organizational Capability:
Disruption via technology will continue to be a reality for organizations and talent development functions. Talent development professionals must have the ability to identify, select, and implement the right learning and talent technologies that serve the best interests of the organization and its people. Practitioners should be able to identify opportunities to adapt and leverage the right technologies at the right time to meet organizational goals.
