f you want to level up your employees with the knowledge and skills that are in demand right now, we have the perfect option for you! Our priority is to ensure you have the best resources around to stay ahead of the curve.
We have been hard at work to enhance the professional development opportunities available to our members, and creating material that is relevant and top of mind. We asked our members to identify the skills and competencies that are most in-demand in our industry. Our courses are designed to provide practical, hands-on training that members can immediately apply in their roles.
As an association, we have always been committed to providing our members with high-quality learning materials and resources. However, as the world has evolved, so too have the needs and expectations of our members. That’s why we have undertaken a major initiative to modernize our learning experiences and stay ahead of the curve. In the past, our learning materials were primarily print-based. We would create manuals, workbooks, and other educational resources in-house, and distribute them to our members via mail or in-person events. While these materials were effective at the time, they had limitations in terms of accessibility, interactivity, and engagement. They also quickly became out of date as terminology, products, and technology changed.
