What is an IAPCO EDGE Seminar?

All EDGE Seminars are taught by an international faculty made up of leaders in the industry who have real-life experiences and case studies to share with the audience.  The seminars are highly interactive, ensuring plenty of time to not only learn from the faculty but knowledge exchange with your peers through group work, debate and discussion, Q&A’s and social networking. 

Did you know that IAPCO Education is open to all, not just IAPCO members!

An IAPCO EDGE Seminar embraces all sectors of the meetings industry, the target audience is:

  • PCO/ Meeting Planners

“The learning in the conference room is surpassed only by the invaluable connections made within the industry. A not to be missed opportunity!”
Lisa Vickers, African Agenda (PCO)
