ATD Research actively invites talent development professionals to provide essential feedback to our research surveys through email invitations, announcing them via social media, and posting announcements on ATD’s Research webpage. Survey responses are kept confidential, are anonymized, and will be combined and reported in the aggregate only.
If you're interested in participating in our live surveys, please sign in to (or create) your free ATD account and choose Research Surveys under Opportunities and Offers. Surveys take anywhere between five and 15 minutes of your time to complete. We appreciate your participation.
The State of the Industry report is ATD's annual review of talent development trends, spending, and activities that can help benchmark your team’s work. Easy to read and with dozens of graphs, charts, and tables, the report provides key information needed to assess and chart your organization’s talent development advancement.
