Directly to:

Whether you consider yourself a consultant or not, chances are you use consulting skills in your work projects related to your area of expertise, such as designing a custom training program, or building and implementing a learning technology system. Regardless of your position, talent professionals must demonstrate strong consulting skills to lead the execution of learning solutions within an organization.

ATD’s Consulting Skills Certificate program provides you with a five-phase consulting model, rooted in a performance-based approach that prioritizes results over activities. You can use this model to diagnose needs, establish goals, and achieve desired performance outcomes for your learning projects. The five phases of the process lay out a practical, step‐by‐step method for addressing a consulting project, beginning from initial contact through the final step of process improvement.

Together with an expert facilitator and collaborating in small groups with your peers, you will follow a case study from start to finish and apply and practice the skills from each phase of the consulting model. You will leave the program prepared to establish strong client partnerships, overcome obstacles and resistance, and build your consulting credibility to influence decision making.

For whom

Talent development professionals or talent solutions teams who consult either internally or externally to design and implement learning solutions within an organization should attend. The program benefits professionals who are new to a consulting role or those who want to prepare to assume this role in the future. A baseline self-evaluation at the start of the program will help more experienced consultants focus on the skills they want to develop as they move through the program.

"I would recommend this program because it's hands on and a nice balance between theory and practical experience. The facilitator did a wonderful job of making it relevant to our organization, and even took the time to get to know our strategy and make links, which had a huge impact on the group."
