Event planning requires the coordination of many moving parts and people. You have to make sure you thought of everything before it happens and even after it happens. If that wasn't difficult enough, trainers for corporate and educational events also have to be very strategic in order to ensure the goals, mission, and vision of the organization are met. That means they are checking in with their direct liaison to create a detailed checklist, and then doing their own follow-up research to better understand the greater organization.
If you have found yourself in need of resources to help you understand the scope of planning a special event or program as a trainer or if you already know how but could use some additional insight from other trainers, this learning path is for you.
Coordinating Special Events and Programs
Creating an event strategy is easy. Well, somewhat. Essentially you simply need to know the goals of the event and the expected outcome of the participants. The two activities below explain how you can create your own successful event strategy and ensure it's aligned with your organization's goals.
This section offers detailed information from checklists to guides explaining everything from how to organize travel to how to manage VIP guests (like dignataries or leaders of organizations).
Before you jump in, I strongly suggest you read over common challenges other planners have faced in your situation. Don't worry, each challenge is also coupled with a solution so you can be prepared for whatever comes the day of, or weeks before.
