Creating Leadership Development Programs Certificate

Create leadership development programs that truly develop leadership skills.

This two-day program supplies participants with an ASTD exclusive model for creating leadership development programs. Using data from their organizations, participants are able to immediately apply what they are learning to their own organizational leadership development initiatives. Most importantly, the ASTD leadership development model includes a process to demonstrate the business value of the leadership development programs.
