IRF offering free, view-on-demand access to Invitational education sessions

i By October 4, 2023 No Comments

The Incentive Research Foundation (IRF) is giving members of the broader incentives community complimentary, view-on-demand access to six breakout sessions from its 2023 Education Invitational.

Six of the Education Invitational’s most highly-ranked sessions will be released throughout the fall. And, the IRF reports, each session recording will be accompanied by “some great AI-generated resources, including the option to complete a quiz and apply for CE credit from SHRM and EIC’s CMP.”

The first session—Purpose & Value: Building Sustainability into Your Programsis now available for viewing. It features an international panel – Nuria Candel, CITP, CIS, Regional Sales Director for Dorchester Collection; Rutger Hoorn, vice-president, Global Sales & Strategic Partnerships, Ovation Global DMC; Brandon Morrison, PhD, head of sustainability, Resorts World Las Vegas; and Allan Schweyer, chief academic advisor, IRF – discussing sustainability efforts, and how they impact the health and well-being of both the planet and people. They also explore how European sustainability efforts are in a different place than those in the United States, and share innovative and meaningful ways to imbed sustainability into programs.

The next session, Give Them What They Want: Incentive Travel Preferences, will be released on Wednesday, October 18, 2023.

To view the session, sign in and go to the recording page. From there you will be able to:

  • View the entire session, including Q&A
  • Apply for CE from SHRM and EIC’s CMP after taking the quiz at the end of the session

The IRF’s strategic partner in the initiative is Vidable by Sonic Foundry, which completed the AI video transformation work that enabled the enhanced functions that accompany the session recordings.
