What is the Conference Service?
The conference team is an experienced team based within the Clinical Education department of UHL. We offer experienced and professional assistance when planning a course or conference including managing budgets and finances, sourcing and booking venues, arranging suppliers, managing delegate registrations, creating course collateral including delegate packs, name badges, certificates and liaising with Royal Colleges. We have a choice of spaces we can offer across three UHL sites including lecture theatres and seminar rooms of varying sizes.
We offer a full conference service similar to anything in the events industry. The conference team can promote courses, including, but not limited to, displaying and sending out flyers, implementing targeted email/mail-shots, social media campaigns and liaising with Royal Colleges for relevant advertising. During a course or conference, the team offer onsite support to deliver the event to greet delegates, ensure all room set ups are correct, distribute delegate packs, set up and monitor any required IT and to answer any delegate queries. Post-event, the team collate feedback to send to Course Directors, send out post-course certificates, reconcile course finances, provide a course de-brief and if requested, share images captured throughout the course.
