Cedar Rapids│Iowa City PTDN Professional and Technical Diversity Network Partners in Diversity Progress Welcome to the Cedar Rapids│Iowa City PTDN Our Mission: The Cedar Rapids│Iowa City Professional Technical Diversity Network (PTDN) is a resource that connects individuals, community organizations and employers in order to support the growth of a diverse workforce. Who we are: The Professional and Technical Development Network (PTDN) was formed in 1997 in Seattle, WA, by area professionals who were interested in improving diversity in their companies and who wanted to provide opportunities for networking with area organizations. PTDN chapters around the country now hold local Power Networking Events. Networking events offer an efficient outreach strategy, benchmarking best practices and professional development. PTDN is a collaborative, noncompetitive approach to nurturing diversity, benefiting individuals, employers and organizations. Throughout the year, the Cedar Rapids/Iowa City PTDN sponsors Corridor Welcoming Receptions and informal "Third Places" gatherings. These activities provide opportunities to build relationships and promote professional growth through networking. Our Welcoming Receptions typically include a short program and refreshments. Previous receptions have featured representatives of state and local government, diverse community organizations and leaders of prominent employers.
