DESTINATION "FAMUCATION"

EMCVenues works with Exceptional Meeting Venues across the nation in an effort to showcase their venues to the meeting planning community. Today’s meeting planners are constantly searching for new and different venues to consider for their next meeting. We understand that in order to make the right decision about purpose-designed meeting venues, the venue must be experienced.

Join us for one or more of our meeting resource site visits offered throughout the year. In addition to your site visit, you will benefit from educational sessions with industry experts. It’s a destination, familiarization, and education event all in one – hence, “DESTINATION FAMUCATION!”

Each qualified meeting planner will receive complimentary hotel accommodations, meals, and educational sessions. Transportation is not included.

EDUCATIONAL WEBINARS

EMCVenues offers exceptional watch-at-your-desk meeting planner webinars. Each of these online meeting resource sessions is a standalone learning experience for the meeting and event professional. Webinars are viewed on your computer and usually run 60 minutes in length. The cost per computer log-on is complimentary for meeting and event planners.

Many people register and offer the programs to their staff, colleagues, or community. Simply set up a meeting room, an LCD, high-speed Internet access and a screen, and pay for only one registration. It's a great opportunity to arrange group discussions, luncheons, and networking.
