FAQ

In 2006, the AATC Education committee sat down and really thought about the vision we wanted for the future. So many companies have “Training” the committee thought, what can we offer to our members to add value to their membership?

The committee decided that we not only wanted to continue to educate, we want to help develop careers. In the days of technology, let’s make this change in “High Definition” So in 2007, AATC recognized this change in priorities and expanded our traditional and popular, award-winning training program: Professional Education Program (P.E.P.) to focus on careers and career paths for employees. The new name: Career Development in High Definition (hd-CD). With our committee, subscribers and instructors, we had a great year!

Hd-CD Classes are offered at $79 per person. The best option for your community would probably be the hd-CD Subscription. Your community would sign up for a year with different pricing options. Hd-CD subscriptions can be billed one time annual fee at $595, quarterly at $155 or monthly at $75 (Feb-June; Aug-Nov) With over 20 classes offered this is a great value!

Hd-CD classes are listed on the website “Events Calendar”. You can register with event reminders to be emailed to you with this option. You can also contact the AATC office at 817-284-1121.

The 2008 hd-CD Calendar offered 28 basic classes, the CAM and NALP programs along with the National Award Winning Thinklink Brainstorming Conference. Hd-CD subscribers also get discounts to the NAAEI Designate programs (CAPS, CAM, NALP, etc) as well as other special programs (Redbook Seminar, Thinklink Brainstorming Conference, etc) The return on the investment is in the increased performance of the individuals that get to experience the hd-CD programs.

The Career Development Committee is always looking at new information to bring to the members of AATC. Watch for designate programs in the Spring and “hot issue” training as well as “The Basics” in 2009!
