KANSAS CITY CHAPTER: Collaborating for Certification: Building a Multichapter Study Group that Supports APTD® and CPTD® Success

Content

SUMMARY: The Kansas City Chapter Multi-Chapter Certification Study Group is a collaborative, learner-led program that supports APTD and CPTD candidates through a blended model of self-study, peer learning, and coached feedback. By shifting from a traditional facilitator-led format to a scalable, multichapter approach, the program expanded access, increased engagement, and empowered participants to take ownership of their learning. With significant growth in participation, global reach, and a strong pipeline from candidate to facilitator, this initiative demonstrates how cross-chapter collaboration can drive certification success, build community, and create sustainable leadership development pathways.
