Session Summary
Uncertainty over the steps involved should not dissuade your chapter from organizing a seminar, conference or other event. The fear of the unknown can become a barrier when it does not have to be. Timeframes, costs and logistics, from the beginning of planning to the very end, as well as evaluation of the seminar, are discussed. By offering a realistic approach to implementing a successful event, chapters gain the confidence to accomplish such a goal and start planning very soon.
