An all-new educational training program, named as “Meetings Excellence”, has been started by Marriott International. This program caters to the needs of intermediary group of meeting executives.
This online course incorporates theory and practical knowledge for meeting professionals eager to hone their skills in the art of event planning. The learning material includes tools, new age strategies, resources, and lots more.

The special learning program is divided into three categories:

- Next, an in-depth look at the many ways in which event planners can organize efficient and successful meetings.
- Finally, an informative session on the various products and services offered by Marriott.
As of now the training material is only available in the English language, however work is in progress to translate the module into different languages such as Spanish, German, French, Chinese, Japanese, and many others. It sure will be great learning material for event planners all over the world.
There are many educational training programs that provide a platform for event planning professionals to grow and develop their skills. In a competitive market, event planners need to constantly learn new tools and resources to keep up with the ever-increasing demands of their valued clients.
Technical knowledge has also become an important area of expertise for event planners. To be a successful event manager, one has to be technically sound. Corporate groups require technical tools to organize events such as business presentations or new product launches. The days of distributing pamphlets seem to be very much over, replaced by high-tech events that require advanced tools to communicate ideas to event attendees.
