Planning a seminar can be a daunting job. Timelines, speakers, contracts, transportation, accommodations, registrations, meals, publicity, and facilities, can all lead to frustration for the seminar chair. By following this guide, the seminar will be easier to plan and won’t be a constant “re-inventing the wheel.”
The recording of last night's webinar, "Tips for Planning a Successful Seminar," by Jana Sloan Broglin is now available to view for free at www.FamilyTreeWebinars.com for a limited time. Some great comments:
- A great webinar full of ideas to consider when planning a seminar.
- Timely topic for me personally as I'm heavily involved with large regional conference in 2017 which is well into the planning stage!
- Very helpful! I've been the seminar chair for 2 seminars recently, but Jana brought up some great points that I hadn't thought about before. I really appreciate her doing this presentation.
