Corporate Communications PDT

Program Development Teams (PDTs) are a diverse mix of energy industry professionals responsible for the content creation of programs. The role generally involves subject matter expert recruitment, participation in planning meetings, and topic selection. The Chair for the PDT rotates dependent on the location for the next session. PDT members provide survey suggestions and responses, identify critical industry issues, share challenges and accomplishments, recommend subject matter experts and set the agenda for each session.
