How to get the advice you desire with on-demand peer-to-peer coaching.
It doesn’t matter what level you’re at in your career, and your world is constantly changing. 
You’re forced to do things you’ve never done before, or maybe you want to do something you’ve never done before. 
You always have questions. 
Those questions can be answered by someone who’s already gone through what you’re going through or about to go through. 
You want to learn what you want to know when you’re ready to understand it, not when you’re able to attend a webinar or conference.

We’ve created a solution:

Training and Education
AIBD Members get 60% off on-demand education!
We’ve increased the discount available to AIBD members when registering for on-demand online education at AIBD.org/continuing-education. The normal price for a one-hour course is $50, and rather than AIBD members paying $35, that figure has been reduced to $21. That’s a $29 savings on each course. 

We said 60% off; it’s actually 58%, we rounded up.

One course per month (with a month or two off) means you’ve paid for your annual membership and more.

There are three ways to get ahold of the discount code.

  1. Refer to the welcome email received upon joining AIBD.
  2. Go to AIBD.org/member-center, log in and click the “Discount Codes” tab.
  3. Contact us at 202-750-4900 or info@AIBD.org
