Bryan, congrats on the career change. You may want to check out the
ASTD (Association for Training and Development), which is a membership
organization for training professionals (www.astd.org). Their web site
has tons of useful resource info, discussion boards, et al., plus they
also offer online training and certification programs. I've found ASTD
very useful at those times in my career when I simultaneously handled
doc writing and training.
