We provide support and resources to our members who are professionals in areas such as Human Resource Development, Organizational Development, Performance Improvement, Career Development, Knowledge Management, Training Design and Delivery, and Organizational Learning. The Benefit of Sponsorship Members, Guests, and Vendors now have the opportunity to be more involved in the regular monthly programs. By sponsoring Austin ASTD, you get to be a part of the excitement in a whole new way. Events are the lifeline of our chapter. However, they are also the greatest operating expense.
