ATD Research and ATD International recently embarked on their first truly global assessment of talent development outlooks, resources, and practices. ATD research analyst Maria Ho and ATD International director Wei Wang will be presenting some important findings from this research, which is compiled in full in the report Global Trends in Talent Development.

By looking at key metrics (including learning hours, budgets, and delivery methods) and top trends and challenges for talent development by global regions, this research will aid talent development professionals in benchmarking their practices against those of their peers in their own region. It offers comparisons across regions (Asia-Pacific; Europe, the Middle East, and Africa; North America; and Latin America) and, in some cases, groupings by workforce size.
