The 13 Easy Steps to Hosting a Regional Meeting at
Your College
1. Set the date.
2. Secure the location.
3. Determine topics and perhaps a “theme” for
the day.
4. Identify possible presenters/facilitators—involve
a variety of speakers from inside and outside your
organization.
5. Develop and finalize the schedule for your meeting
6. Determine menu for lunch. Reminder: ICCET will reimburse
up to $200 for the food cost.
7. Send your meeting details to the ICCET Professional
Development Chair to be added to the ICCET Calendar & Web
site.
8. Devise a marketing calendar so you have a plan for
sending out e-mail reminders about your meeting to
the listserv (iccet@iccb.org). Hint: a good rule of
thumb is every two weeks until a month out, then every
week.
9. E-mail your first meeting notice to the ICCET
listserv.
10. Put together a firm agenda for your meeting. You
may want to use the attached “event plan” to
help everyone understand the flow of events for the
day. (add event plan)
11. Confirm with speakers and special guests.
12. Send out a final email with directions to your
campus/building.
13. Host a great regional meeting!
