MPI announced two new educational programs: “No Turning Back: A Revolution in the Meetings Industry” and “The MPI Meetings Matter Webinar Series.”
“In these tough times it is imperative that the strategic business value of meetings and events be understood as part of an organization’s economic recovery plan, and these programs are a great step in the right direction,” said Bruce MacMillan, president and CEO of MPI. “We are arming our industry with the education, skills and tools they need to transcend the turmoil and lead the resurgence.”
The “No Turning Back” program is a three-part educational series underlining the four key elements of strategic value for meetings and events: portfolio management, meeting design, measurement and advanced logistics. The program begins with a webinar on April 21, which will be followed by a half-day workshop at the July 11-14th World Education Congress in Salt Lake City, and conclude with a wrap-up webinar on Aug. 26.
The “Meetings Matter Webinar Series” is an eight part educational program held once a week, beginning at the end of April and running through June. Through each webinar, MPI will offer real life solutions to issues that are confronting today’s industry professional. To date, this is the largest, most comprehensive, content-focused webinar series MPI has launched.
