  The Great Knowledge Acceleration:

  Bridging Generations in the AI Era

  Hosted by ATD LI Chapter
  

  Thursday, November 6th | 12:00 - 1:15 p.m. ET | Zoom

  
  

  About This Event

  Talent development professionals stand at a critical inflection point, where preserving human expertise in learning and development is as crucial as embracing AI innovation.

  With digital natives (Gen Z and Millennials) representing over two-thirds of the workforce in 2025 and experienced L&D professionals reaching retirement age daily, the transformation challenges facing talent development are unprecedented. Yet few organizations feel truly prepared to address this challenge -- creating both urgency and opportunity to revolutionize how we amplify learning excellence.

  Join Future of Work expert Luke Goetting to explore how talent development leaders can harness the convergence of generational transition, human intelligence, and AI capabilities to become catalysts for extraordinary learning outcomes. Through practical case studies and immediately applicable frameworks focused on L&D, you'll discover:

  • How leading organizations are turning potential knowledge loss into accelerated innovation for better learning experiences
  • Ways to leverage both human expertise and AI to scale learning and development wisdom across teams while maintaining the personal touch that makes training impactful
  • Proven techniques for fostering meaningful cross-generational collaboration between instructional designers, facilitators, and subject matter experts that increase retention and performance
  • Strategies to capture critical institutional knowledge about training methodologies, learning paths, and successful program execution before it walks out the door
  • Methods to empower early-career L&D professionals while honoring experienced perspectives on what makes learning truly transformative

  This isn't just about traditional knowledge management -- it's about creating a dynamic ecosystem that propels talent development success in an era of unprecedented technological change. Whether you're an L&D executive looking to leave a lasting legacy, a mid-career professional building bridges between training teams, or an emerging talent development leader seeking to accelerate your impact, you'll gain actionable insights to enhance your leadership journey.

  Learning Objectives:

  1. Implement ready-to-use strategies for cross-generational knowledge sharing that work in today's hybrid learning environments
  2. Design effective skill-swap initiatives and mentoring programs that align with ATD's Talent Development Capability Model
  3. Learn how to thoughtfully integrate AI tools to enhance (not replace) human expertise in learning design and delivery
  4. Create sustainable knowledge-sharing practices through innovative team structures and programs that benefit both L&D professionals and learners
  5. Develop approaches for building psychological safety and trust across generational divides in talent development

  This highly interactive session provides practical tools that talent development professionals can apply immediately to their learning programs and organizations. With both technological disruption and workforce transformation accelerating faster than ever in L&D, the time to act is now.

  Design for All: Advancing Accessibility Together

  Hosted by ATD LI Chapter
  

  Thursday, January 22 | 12:00 - 1:15 p.m. ET | Zoom

  
  

  About This Event

  What if everything you thought you knew about accessibility was only the beginning? Too often, when we talk about accessibility in learning, the focus often lands on what one person can do. But accessibility at scale isn’t a solo effort. It’s a shared responsibility that requires alignment across teams, tools, and processes.

  In this session, you’ll meet Sarah Mercier, editor and author of Design for All Learners: Create Accessible and Inclusive Learning Experiences. She will unpack universal design through the lens of her own journey, from building a foundation in digital accessibility to uncovering the hidden challenges and opportunities that reshaped her design mindset and approach. 

  Together, we’ll explore how shifting from individual action to collaborative strategy builds more sustainable, scalable accessibility. You’ll discover practical ways to support and advance your organization’s accessibility maturity, foster cross-functional accountability, and design learning experiences that are inclusive from the start. 

  You’ll leave with a fresh perspective on accessibility, inspiring you to go beyond compliance and design with empathy, innovation, and positive impact.

  Learning Objectives

  1.    Explore the critical success factors of accessibility maturity in an organization.

  2.    Uncover facts that challenge the assumptions and misconceptions that often create barriers to access.

  3.    Prepare for change with one thing you can do right now.
