MP 0221 Conference Architecture: Creating Engaging Experiences for Today's Audience

Today’s event attendees expect more from their time and money investment – they want experiences they can share, unique learning formats, and tangible tools to accelerate their career. As conference organizers, we need to use cutting edge CX (customer experience) tools, neuroscientific learning techniques, and nontraditional settings and activities to elevate their experience.

Students will learn how to:

  1. Use foundational experience design tools, persona mapping, and experience journey mapping
  2. Create effective agendas based on how neuroscience affects learning
  3. Identify unique settings and audience tools to enhance the conference experience
