IAEE CEM Learning Program
Event Operations
Monday, Feb. 27, 2012
8:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
The International Association of Exhibitions and Events will co-locate an exclusive CEM Learning Program at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center the day before Destinations Showcase.
The registration fee is $250 and includes admission to Destinations Showcase the following day (for non-suppliers).
Course Description:
Your exhibition is only a few days away. As a manager, you have spent the past months planning and organizing during the preparation stages of the exhibition. Once you move your operation on site and bring your exhibition to life, so to speak, your management functions switch to directing and controlling.
After completing this module, you will be able to:
- Explain the differences between the four management functions of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling
- Compile an Event Specification Guide for an upcoming event
- Develop a checklist of agenda items for a pre-con with each official contractor
- Identify the elements of an Exhibitor Manual
- Develop a plan for a daily routine during show days
- Identify the security requirements needed during move-out
- Explain the value of conducting a post-event evaluation
In order to receive the course module book in advance of the program, registration is required on or before Monday, Feb. 6. You will need to bring this module book to class with you, as extras are not provided on site. For those registering after the Feb. 6 deadline, a course module will be provided on site. Cut-off date for IAEE CEM registration is Monday, Feb. 20.
