Welcome to Professional Development Group II. PDG has recently entered a new era in the long history of the company. Steve and Judy, who many of you know, retired as of December 2004. But, as I take the leadership role of this company and begin to make my own changes, there will be many aspects of the company that will not change. PDG has always tried to:
- Provide great training content at a reasonable price
- Choose unique locations that allow our attendees to safely enjoy their working vacations
- Help facilitate communications between schools of all types and sizes
- Manage all aspects of our meetings and those of our clients
- Provide quality on-line content and cutting edge training methods
PDG was started in 1986 by my father, Steve and my mother, Judy. They provided 18 years of quality content and meetings and I have no intent to change this quality reputation that PDG has developed. PDG II will continue to push the “conference” envelope with new ideas like free wireless internet for all meetings and on-line digital handout materials.
Our Mission Statement:
Professional Development Group strives to manage, produce and develop the highest quality conference and training events and effectively manage the associations that communicate to their membership through these annual events. In order to provide cost effective and appropriate training PDG utilizes multiple communication methods including: live interactive sessions, web based video training, e-mail, phone communication, and one-on-one interaction. PDG events provide practical information to management and staff that can be implemented on the first day back in the office. PDG understands implicitly that our attendees and members can choose to spend their revenue and time with other content providers and associations, we simply strive to provide the best and most personalized customer service available.

Thank you again for your support during the last 18 years. I hope we can continue to count on your support for the next 18!
Sincerely,

Jason P. Beard
