ATD NM Events

We extend an open invitation to all New Mexico professionals to join us at any and all of our events which include professional development and casual Meet & Greets.

It is our objective to provide everyone a safe learning, sharing, and training environment. Our vision of a better New Mexico can only be fulfilled when we are inclusive and welcoming.

    COST: FREE to attend. ATD NM will cover appetizers for the table and each person's first non-alcoholic drink. (Attendees should plan to pay for any other food or beverages that they order.)

    REGISTRATION: For planning purposes, we ask that you register for this event. Also, if your schedule changes and you can no longer come, please unregister yourself or let us know via email at atdnmprograms@gmail.com. While we generally have a good number of folks sign up for Meet & Greets, the average no-show rate for 2025 was 50%. This no-show rate makes it hard for us to plan with the restaurants because they set aside tables for us that end up empty (and that could have been used for other patrons).

    QUESTIONS: Email us at atdnmprograms@gmail.com and one of our board members will get back to you.

    What is a Meet & Greet? For ATD NM, these are informal social get togethers that our chapter hosts quarterly. Usually held at an Albuquerque restaurant, we generally do a simple "get-to-know-you" activity, but the bulk of the time is unstructured so attendees can connect with other Talent Development professionals.

    Designed for folks to drop by anytime during the 1.5 hr Meet & Greet, ATD NM usually covers appetizers for the table and each attendee's first non-alcoholic drink. Open to anyone in our ATD community and their guests.
