     Event Planning Guide: Essential Handbook of Meeting, Conference and
     Workshop Success for Charity and Not-for-Profit Organizations. 

     Whether your event is a simple meeting of ten people or a conference of 500 attendees, the basics of event planning
     remain the same. This no-nonsense guide provides all the resources you need to prepare for, and conduct, a successful
     meeting, conference or workshop--including detailed, practical information on choosing a speaker and a venue,
     budgeting, day of the event and post-event activities, promotion and publicity. It provides the forms and checklists you
     need to succeed.

     "Essential reading for all event planners. No matter how well organized you are, it's impossible to think of everything and
      plan ahead for every eventually. This guide is structured in a way that you can feel confident you've covered everything to
     ensure that your event is a huge success."
   Cathleen Fillmore, President, Speakers Gold

     In general, we learn up to seven new things at a time. We only read or hear about 20% of the information we hear or read
     every day. Unless we review new information within 24 hours we will forget about 80% of that information. That would leave
     about 4% of any new information we may need to succeed in our learning. 

     This book is designed to give you the learning knowledge and skills you need to remember and use a great deal more than
     4%. Although it presents some pretty standard learning skills, the underlying assumption is that learning at its best is built
     upon the motto: Always look for the wonder in learning!

     The chapter are divided into: taking notes, speed reading, study skills, improving your memory, researching and writing
​     papers, time management, and how to learn by yourself.

     The best way to learn is to help others learn. This short book on teaching others is designed to help experienced and
     beginning teachers, educators, facilitators, instructors, and content providers. Whatever the learning situation, the goal is
     the same -- to provide a place and framework that allows learners to acquire knowledge and skills for professional and
     personal development. 

     The book is divided into the following chapters: for beginning trainers, the basics: how you learn; principles of adult
     learning, characteristics of adult learners, designing programs, learning disabilities, different ways of presenting
     information, taking a risk, when participants challenge you, teaching with other trainers, multicultural aspects, audio-visual
     tools, physical environment, evaluations, summary, self evaluation, and further resources with Appendices on: program
​     booking and training program requirements, and teaching styles.
