      <title>Training Delivery PDN— Building Your Storytelling Muscle: Part 2 (September 11, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(55, 55, 55); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 24px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;Training Delivery PDN—&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;Building Your Storytelling Muscle: Part 2&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;What makes a good storyteller?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;font style=""&gt;Depending on the audience and purpose of the story, storytellers must flex their skills to ensure a story lands well and supports the objectives of their training session. Choosing when to use humor, how deep in the weeds to go, how expressive to be, and how to meet time requirements while building rapport with learners is a balancing act for facilitators.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Join the Training Delivery PDN (with special guest John Guarnero!) to practice delivering stories that hit the mark. We will unpack the characteristics of good storytellers, reflect on your current storytelling growth goals, and dive into several group activities based in storytelling skill building.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Technology and AI in L&amp;D SIG  Kickoff: Using AI to Elevate Impact (September 18, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(55, 55, 55); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Technology and AI in L&amp;amp;D SIG &amp;nbsp;Kickoff: Using AI to Elevate Impact&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;" face="Tahoma"&gt;AI is transforming work at the same time that L&amp;amp;D is being asked to show business impact. How can you turn these two shifts into an opportunity?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;" face="Tahoma"&gt;SEWI-ATD is excited to introduce Technology and AI in L&amp;amp;D Special Interest Group! This group is designed for L&amp;amp;D leaders to share strategies and learn together. Whether you are a small team trying to drive results without headcount or a larger organization striving to improve existing complex workflows, this group is for you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;" face="Tahoma"&gt;This first session will be focused on where we are. Tool access and experience will vary widely, and we want to&amp;nbsp;meet this group where we are so this&amp;nbsp;is a&amp;nbsp;genuine community of practice rather than another webinar. Registrants will receive a pre-session survey to help shape the agenda. Come ready to say out loud what would make this group valuable for you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
