Celebrating the Year’s Best Work in Talent Development!

ATD Dallas has always recognized the amazing work being accomplished by the learning and talent development teams in organizations across the DFW metroplex. Previously known as "The Best Places to Learn," the AXIS Awards has been a signature event for the chapter since 2015.

WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT

• We all work hard inside our organizations in order to develop the most important resource - its people!
