About Me
HI! I'm Laurie Zeller. I began my career in K-12 music education, pivoted to sales, and though I was successful in selling I found that training new sales reps is what I loved the most. I joined the Association for Talent Development (ATD) in 2015 and earned the Associate in Professional Development Certification in 2018. I moved into full time talent development work in 2022. I currently work for SAE, a non profit engineering association, as a Learning Operations Specialist and Instructional Designer.
Resource and tool suggestions that came from organizations like ATD and from professionals in my network were essential to preparing for a career in adult learning. Now it is my privilege to share a list with you. Browse the tools, explore them on your own then, "take what you like, leave the rest."
