Testimonials

Relive some favorite moments from ATD International Conference and EXPO and hear what attendees had to say about their experience.

As a first-timer, it was a wonderful experience.

It was a bit overwhelming for sure, but the orientation helped me understand how the event worked, and the learning paths set me up for the rest of the conference.

There was quality content aplenty for everyone.

It was a great opportunity to learn more about the different aspects of learning and talent development and network with others who are in this field.

One of the best things about this conference is the networking.

L&D professionals are the best group of people to hang with. They care about people and learning, and everyone I met inspired me. Thank you!

Great job! There were so many exceptional sessions in addition to the General sessions with the keynote speakers.

I can not put into words the amount of knowledge I gained by attending this event. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and opportunity!

The EXPO was insane and amazing. I got a lot of great information on what's out there for technology, resources, etc., and I got to swing in a hammock and listen to a guided meditation.

The variety and high quality of sessions is excellent. The keynote speakers are great. I've learned so much from the sessions.

You do a great job. I was very impressed last year and this year's city is amazing. Definitely registering for next year.

It is very well-planned and thought out. The committee does a great job. Wonderful cities!

The keynote speakers were fantastic and really helped hype up the crowd, creating excitement for the day, and were extremely inspiring.

I enjoyed all the presentations I attended and wished there was time for more. It was easy to navigate through the conference center and there was plenty of help when needed.
