About Brenda’s Submission:
Brenda Chapman was awarded the Field Trainer Scholarship for her exceptional work on the Customer Engagement Blueprint Project.
This innovative training initiative aimed at enhancing account management and customer profiling for Astellas’ sales team, evidenced notable achievements in cost savings and learner engagement. By avoiding external vendor costs, Brenda saved over $75,000, showcasing her ability to lead a high-impact project efficiently.
Her methodology involved forming an advisory board, conducting thorough needs assessments, and creating content that led to a successful workshop at the National POA meeting. The project’s effectiveness was further demonstrated by significant improvements in learners’ confidence in performing business territory assessments and customer profile overviews, as highlighted by pre and post survey results.
Brenda’s dedication to learning and development, coupled with her passion for helping others excel, underscores why she is a deserving recipient of this scholarship, which will enable her to further develop her skills in advanced training, content creation, and workshop development.

The Field Trainer Scholarship was a great opportunity for me to receive recognition for the work I was doing as a Field Trainer, but also applying for it challenged me to organize and present my work in a different way, and that was a development opportunity…
[Winning the scholarship] gave me a foundation for nominating other people for the award when I see the great work my colleagues are doing. So this year I will be nominating a Field Trainer I work with!” ~ Amy Lang, 2023 Field Trainer Scholarship Recipient
