Untangling Webinars: Learning From the Past for Future Success


image


This year brought a sudden emphasis on virtual education as many of us were unexpectedly met with a huge challenge of transitioning our place-based events to a virtual format. Faced with this situation, all of us were forced to innovate quickly. The result was creative solutions that maintained the norms of traditional learning while remaining socially-distant.

 As we catch our breath, it’s time to take a fresh look at an oft-overlooked staple: Webinars. The impact of this past year has radically and permanently changed the webinar landscape. But what does the change mean, and how can organizations make this transformation work for them? Join us as we discuss how to best position and produce your webinars for future success. 

 Takeaways include:

  • How to incorporate what we learned in the past year to expand the effectiveness and impact of these programs
  • An understanding of best practices from the CommPartners Event Team leaders
  • Access to 3 leading Association/Professional Development leaders on how they plan to innovate in 2021
  • A fresh look at outsourcing vs. in-house production

One CAE Credit will be provided for live attendance.
