ATD 2021: It Starts with Us.

For nearly 80 years, the Association for Talent Development (formerly ASTD) has hosted conferences to educate and inspire professionals in the talent development field. From the very first conference held in Chicago in 1945 which drew 56 attendees to today’s international event, learning and development professionals have come to expect only the best from ATD conferences.

Our commitment to providing world-class speakers, thought leadership, and unprecedented networking and collaboration opportunities make the ATD International Conference & Exposition the premier event for our field. More than 13,000 professionals from 80+ countries rely on ATD’s annual conference to learn about trends and best practices, discover new tools and solutions at the largest EXPO for training and development practitioners, and share ideas with peers who are committed to helping create a world that works better.

No other L&D conference offers the depth and breadth of programming, EXPO suppliers, and networking that ATD’s international conference offers. Discover it for yourself!

We recognize the talent development field expects excellence when it comes to ATD’s international conference experience, so we are taking our conference theme, It Starts with Us, to heart. We are committed to utilizing best practices, innovative ideas, and technologies from across industries to deliver an exceptional experience. You can expect dynamic conversations, unparalleled learning, and fun delivered in a responsible manner.

We will make changes and enhancements to the event experience to accommodate current recommendations for health precautions and physical distancing from the leading international and national agencies while following any state and local guidelines. We know these guidelines and recommendations may change as guidance evolves in the coming months.

ATD Volunteer Program

Join the best networking circuit at the conference. Be a volunteer at ATD21!
Hosted by the ATD Los Angeles and Utah Chapters

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the ATD 2021 International Conference & EXPO! ATD21 will be unlike any other ATD conference. For decades we’ve gathered thousands from around the world to collaborate, network, and learn together at our premier event. In 2021, circumstances require us to do things differently and we look to our community of volunteers to help support us in the experience. We will be implementing some changes such as capacity limits, health screenings, and more to deliver on our commitment to providing an environment that follows recommendations for health protocols.  

Program Benefits

Conferences take a lot of people power to run, and ATD depends on volunteers to make it happen. The ATD Volunteer Program trades volunteer work days for complimentary conference days. For each full day you volunteer during ATD21, you will receive a complimentary conference day pass (this excludes pre-conference volunteers). Plus you’ll make new friends and have a blast!

What You’ll Do

There’s a role to fit everyone’s style. Help conference attendees find their way as an Ask Me Volunteer. Help educational sessions run smoothly as a Session Room Monitor. Pitch in at certain locations, like the ATD Store, Career Center, or in the EXPO as a Special Location Assistant. Or dip into all the roles and swoop to the rescue as a Floater.
