Virtual APTD Study Group
Information Session
Thinking about earning your APTD certification this year or just curious what it’s all about? We’re hosting this FREE information session to give you an overview of ATD Nashville Chapter's Summer Associate Professional in Talent Development (APTD) Study Group, where you can meet the facilitators, get exam prep tips, preview the weekly study schedule, and ask all your APTD questions in a low-pressure, supportive environment. This study group is designed for talent development professionals who are pursuing the APTD certification.
A few things we love about our study group cohort:
✨ Fully virtual — join from anywhere✨ Open to ATDN members AND non-members✨ Welcoming to out-of-state and international participants✨ Discounted cohort pricing for ATD Nashville members✨ AND we absolutely welcome our fellow ATD chapter friends — members of other ATD chapters also qualify for member pricing with proof of chapter membership
Whether you are just starting to explore certification or ready to commit to the full 12-week summer cohort, this info session is a great place to start.
Please note that this event is only the free information session about study group. If you would like to attend the entire 12-week study group cohort from June-August 2026, there will be more information about how to register that we will cover.
