Thanks to the Delta Kappa Gamma Educational Foundation, I was a recipient of a Lucile Cornetet Professional Development Award. This enabled me to attend the
Flawless Business Operations seminar that was held in Washington, D.C. This course was designed to help me:
- Address HR components critical to a successful and diverse work environment;
- Discuss the impact of ROI planning objectives, measurement tools and reports;
- Administer the event budget within the context of the overall association;
- Examine criteria for internal and external partnerships;
- Prepare for crisis, disasters, and emergencies that may occur at our meetings;
- Analyze legal and liability issues and likely implications.
This was the third course I have taken in a series of four for The Business of Meetings Certificate Program. Many thanks to the Board of Trustees for the Delta Kappa Gamma Educational Foundation for making this possible. I encourage you all to check out the wonderful work of the foundation by going directly to their website at
www.dkgef.org . Perhaps you will consider applying for an award!
