Empowering Event Management with Tailored Training Solutions

Client Overview

Industry: Event Management

Challenges

The client’s German-speaking event department faced significant language and proficiency barriers using a comprehensive event registration tool integral to their workflow.

Despite its essential role in the company’s operations, the existing English-language course materials did not meet the needs of all employees, leading to inefficiencies and underutilization of the tool’s capabilities.

Solution

Visualizing Ideas, with eight years of experience and certification from the tool’s developer, offered customized German-language training sessions.

These sessions were designed to address the unique needs of the client’s workforce, aiming to enhance proficiency and confidence in using the event registration tool.

Ongoing Support:
Post-training, participants had direct access to trainers for further assistance, ensuring the practical application of their new skills in real-world scenarios.

Enhanced Employee Proficiency and Organisational Efficiency:

Employees from both beginner and advanced groups reported increased confidence in using the tool, capable of independently setting up registrations and navigating complex functionalities.
