Join us for this special ATD meeting June 25th from 8am to 12 Noon! ATDBR members extraordinaire Susana Lee, Mechelle Roberthon, and Regina Leingang were all selected this year to present at the ATD ICE conference that was canceled for May 2020 due to COVID.  It is a HUGE honor to be selected to present and we cannot be more proud of these professionals. We’ve invited Susana, Mechelle and Regina to present their ICE sessions to our chapter at our June membership meeting. You won’t want to miss this exciting mini-conference! 

CODE BLUE: Reviving Dead Facilitation Skills Stat 

The heart of this session is for trainers to understand that facilitation is not only about being informative but being entertaining too. Too many times we've sat in trainings with a very knowledgeable person presenting content that would never be remembered; let alone understood and acted upon. Poor facilitation is forgotten content. Attendees will learn the symptoms of poor audience engagement, how to connect with their audience, and how to create an engaging learning environment.

 



Presenter: Mechelle Roberthon                     

Mechelle Roberthon is a Certified Professional in Talent Development  (CPTD) through the Association of Talent Development. Her background includes training delivery, performance improvement, managing learning programs, and interpersonal/business/personal skills. Currently, she is pursuing a Doctorate of Education in Learning and Organizational Change from Baylor University. She holds a Masters of Science in Education with a specialization in Training and Performance Improvement. Mechelle is also an experienced career and professional development instructor. She has taught over 500 corporate courses with her evaluations consistently rating above average. Her dynamic teaching style has become a favorite amongst learners.
