Volunteers are crucial to the ongoing success of the CNY ATD Chapter. Our chapter thrives because of those who give of their time, talent, and expertise. However, volunteering can also help you thrive by enabling you to accomplish your personal, professional, and leadership development goals.

Personal and Professional Benefits

Stay Relevant in the Field
By engaging in the talent development field through volunteerism, you are eligible to receive Associate Professional in Talent Development (APTD) or Certified Professional in Talent Development (CPTD) re-certification points.

Explore Career Opportunities
Regardless of your tenure in the field, career level, or aspirations, volunteering will introduce you to various professional paths.

Develop and Refine Skills
Volunteering exposes you to skills and tasks that you may not experience in your full-time role and provides opportunities to lead people, teams, or projects, allowing you to boost your resume.
