ASTD internationally and ASTD-VOS locally provide numerous opportunities for the training and development professional and specialist to hone or learn skills and network with other professionals. The information on this website includes resources for best practices in human performance, human resources, organizational change, social and workplace learning, training, development and Web 2.0 integration.

You will also find local and regional events training and development events, news, community of practice meetings and workshops as well as resources for the Certified Professional in Learning and Performance. Fortune 500 companies now include the CPLP certification for training and development specialist job candidates.

The Valley of the Sun Chapter of the American Society for Training and Development serves the Phoenix metro area in Arizona, which includes Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Queen Creek, Apache Junction, Glendale, Surprise, Goodyear, Buckeye, Litchfield Park and Tolleson.

We've got some new additions to the website, so please engage!

What are they? The VOS Blog and VOS Wiki pages.

Our goal is to stay on top of the trending in training and development in order to give you, our members, the straight talk and opportunities to explore what these can do for you in the workplace learning environment you are creating within your company and/or business atmosphere.

Let us know of any training and development workshops that can benefit Valley professionals so we can post them on our calendar of events. Sent the notices to webdirector@vos.astd.org and please join our ASTD-VOS community created from our 2009 Web 2.0 Social Learning Conference and post them there as well. We look foward to a fantastic 2010!

Please take some time, check them out and participate if you would. With the Web 2.0 components and strategies being all the talk about town now (and a growing trend for training and development), we felt it only appropriate to engage them here as well. The permissions should be set for you to be able to participate, but let us know if you have any difficulties.

Btw... if you have some expertise with SharePoint and would like to volunteer for the Web/Tech Committee, please let us know. Contact the webdirector@vos.astd.org
