Danielle's Journey

In October 2018 I started this journey to becoming a Certified Bank Training Professional (CBTP). Over the past 15 months I have completed 5 steps including Boot Camp, A to E Professional Development Assignment, Advanced week training, Final Exam and last but not least.. submitting a full training program! Through this journey I have learned how to approach things with the A to E Model. Assess, Build, Create, Deliver and Evaluate! These fundamentals have helped me approach training opportunities, projects and even some real life obstacles with a plan and direction! I am excited to say that as of January 2020 I am officially a Certified Bank Training Professional! I am thankful to those who started me on this journey and my employer for supporting and encouraging me in finishing this achievement! I am excited to continue applying what I have learned to create engaging, fun and effective training programs!
