What Is the Value of Certification?

What is the value of certification? What benefits could I receive from pursuing an ATD credential? These are some of the most common questions that we receive about of certification. To explore this issue in more detail, we conducted a survey on the value of certification over the summer. During this webcast, we will talk about the results of the Value of Certification survey and hear from a panel of credential- holders about what having a certification has done for them. During the webcast, we will explore the issues below as well as your questions for our panelists: • what more than 500 credential holders told us about the value of their certifications • what organizations gain when their employees achieve a certification • what factors to consider if you are thinking about pursuing a certification. If you are wondering whether pursuing a certification will be helpful to your career, join us to hear from Holly Batts, associate director of the ATD Certification Institute, along with Sam Caballero, CPLP; Gregory Rollins, APTD; and Whitney Sieck, CPLP—three credential holders who will share how they have found value in their ATD certifications.
