By attending this online session, you will work with and receive 3 meeting industry spreadsheets:  Rack Rate, Break Even Analysis and Attrition, along with a number of in-class worksheets, all tailored to the meeting industry professional.

After this session, the participant will be able to:

  • Identify critical Excel tools to save time
  • Use filtering and other advanced options from the Data menu
  • Understand how to use Excel to track potential attrition damages

This course will be interactive, so be sure to bring your questions.  A working knowledge of Excel is strongly recommended.

How does the Web conference medium work?  It's easy and convenient!  You will need a phone connection for the audio portion of the program and an Internet connection for a slide presentation and other online visuals.

The Webinar is a live interactive Web conference.  Each registration includes one telephone connection at one location, one Internet connection, one e-mail package of Webinar materials, and an unlimited number of participants from your organization.  Registrants must submit a complete registraton form, and provide a working e-mail address, in order to receive login/dial-in information.  All participants at your location need not register unless they would like to participate individually at separate locations.

The number of participants per dial-in location is limited only to the size of your meeting room.  To receive additional value, several member companies buy lunch for their employees and include them in the Webinar session.
