Dear PSTD Members:

We are now formally opening the filing of a Certificate of Candidacy for the election of the next set of Board of Trustees for the year 2023-2024 for the Philippine Society for Training and Development. With this announcement, we encourage everyone to take part in this crucial right as members of the society to nominate competent leaders with a solid commitment to continue the strategic roadmap where PSTD is heading. There is still a lot to be done and with your help, we can do more and better.

The PSTD Board of Trustees shall be composed of fifteen (15) members who will reflect and represent the members’ interests. Therefore, the fifteen members of the Board must truly and proportionately represent the membership based on the PSTD’s member categories, i.e. private, institutional, individual consultants, and government organizations.

The elected Board of Trustees will be announced in the 2nd week of December 2022.

Thank you so much.

Very truly yours,
