Do you know when glass gobos are preferable to metal gobos?
What about the biggest challenges to watch out for when doing events in loft spaces?
Relax, we’ve got you covered!
They say give a man a fish and feed him for a day but teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. The Event Leadership Institute wants to teach event planners how to fish. Well, not actually fish but rather to they want to give event planners the tools to create, plan and execute better events.
With a wide range of classes on everything from event lighting to insurance, from planner pricing to big wow within budget and from eco friendly events to audio 101 and everything in between. ELI has something for everyone. Classes are taught by top subject matter experts in the field of events including: Sasha Souza, Sean Low, Jes Gordon and Executive Director, Howard Givner.
The best part? It’s all available online, on demand!
From WPIC Inc: "At the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada, we encourage our planners to consistently get out there and learn and we can’t think of a better way to do so. In fact, one of our very own WPICers, Carolyn Ray, WPICC, is their Education Director!"
So dear WPIC Alumni, keep your eyes peeled for some interesting offers and opportunities from WPIC and ELI in the future.
But what are you waiting for? Go learn something!
Thanks, Carolyn. The videos on the site are really good. I was a runner and I found this interview with Mary Wittenberg of the NY Marathon to be an excellent lesson on the complexity of a large-scale special event. http://www.eventleadershipinstitute.com/course-details-Mary-Wittenberg.aspx.
Keep up the great work.
