Site Member Webcast

Site Member Webinar
The Economic Significance of Motivational Events and Incentive Travel       

Thank you to all who joined us for the Site member webinar in March! Download the recording here. (running time: 25 minutes)

Mary MacGregor, Site President and Vice President, Account Development, BCD Meetings & Incentives and Steve O’Malley, Site International Foundation President and Senior Vice President, Maritz Travel held a member Webcast to discuss the results of the recently released The Economic Significance of Meetings to the U.S. report and what Site members can take away from it. Stay tuned the siteglobal.com member archives to hear this presentation.

While this study is focused on only one world market, the data serves as a good benchmark for other regions to look to as well. The approach and methodology utilized in this study also stands as a template for other countries to model after when developing similar research initiatives.
 
Concepts to be examined:
§          What is the economic impact of the U.S meetings industry?
§          What is the projected volume of the U.S. incentive travel & events segment?
§          How can Site members use this information to educate clients and government agencies?
§          Why is it important for various industry associations to work together?

Growth Through Education

CITE

Site members are encouraged to pursue the prestigious CITE certification.  This is the designation that recognizes your knowledge and experience in the Incentive Travel Industry.

Relevancy is paramount and in keeping with the brand and vision change sweeping through Site, the current certification program will be restructured and updated in order to remain relevant and representative of the ever-changing incentive industry. Because of this transition and the available time frame, no new candidates will be accepted to the existing program. Please continue to check back frequently as details of our new program are posted.

eLearning

Self-directed learning is the most rewarding. Site hosts a number of webinars and offers many opportunities for distance learning. Thanks to a generous sponsorship by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts and the FutureSITE capital campaign donors, Site is pleased to offer members this tool.
In an effort to enhance educational offerings to the membership, this membership benefit will provide a more robust and interactive learning experience for Site members. Special features include the ability to hot link to Web sites from the presentation, ask questions of the participants, launch applications, and download related documents.

While Site eLearning can never replace offerings at the Site International Conference and local chapter educational events, eLearning has numerous benefits over traditional methods including:

  • Self-paced learning – Members can listen to presentations on their own schedule, any time of day.
  • Increased information retention – Since each member learns at their own time and pace, the amount of information retained from the presentation is often greater.
  • Less lost productivity – Because eLearning can occur anywhere, members no longer need to be removed from the workplace to update their skills.
  • Variety –Site members will be able to participate in only the sessions in which they are interested.

For any questions, contact Lydia Goessel, eLearning Coordinator by telephone at +1.312.673.5725 or by email at lgoessel@siteglobal.com.

Remember, eLearning is a Site member benefit and you must be logged in order to view the content. If you have forgotten your login credentials, please contact site@siteglobal.com. If you are interested in joining Site, click here to apply today.
