During these challenging times, our Product and Technology teams are working to enhance our products to meet the demands of the industry. One of the best things about these trainings is that the content is updated as new features and enhancements are released. A new feature that is now highlighted is the ability for attendees to select their timezone when registering for an event to better understand when the session will be hosted in their native time.
Both the Virtual and Hybrid Courses earn you credits towards your Certified Meeting Professional certification. Typically a $395 value, you can register and attend these for $0 for the time being. The trainings are hosted Monday – Friday at multiple times to fit into your schedule and timezone. Register here!
