See What Others Are Saying...
“I'm a little over halfway through with the course and wanted to send a quick note to say that I'm very impressed with the content! It is definitely worth every penny. When we last met last year, I mentioned my minimal events-related experience. I'm glad I took your suggestion of first taking this course as it has definitely improved my general knowledge of the events world. I especially appreciate the case studies and LLG examples you have shared throughout the course.”

“It was hard to make a transition to an industry where sometimes planner to planner collaboration is not welcomed, however Lauren is truly a breath of fresh air!
