Skills Brokerage Association Conference 2009

Skills Brokerage Association Conference 2009

The SBA conference was a national event that took place in February 2009 involving a variety of key stakeholders within the Skills Broker arena.

Triangle’s event team co-ordinated agenda content, recruited guest speakers, delegate recruitment and management, exhibitor marketing and sponsorship (sponsorship secured from LSC, BERR, and DIUS). This was a platform to stimulate new areas of businesses, procedures, and promote a better understanding of the sector as a whole.

The event was heavily focused upon Skills Brokers networking to share experience and to disseminate best practice procedures and an audience of over 300 delegates was generated (including 200 paying delegates).

Triangle’s involvement included:

  • Recruiting guest speakers
  • Selling exhibition space
  • Securing sponsorships
  • Promotion and engagement to attendees
  • Invitation handling
  • Administration
  • On site event management

 Responses from attendees:

“Well managed with short focused presentations and activities.”

“Fantastic and informative event.”

“The event was very beneficial and reinforced the positive impact of the brokerage service as a cemented skills service for employers...This was a great event to share best practice!”

“I enjoyed the group work – having a chance to study real examples of brokerage and provide comments and feedback on these. It was also good to have the view of a training provider on how they find the experience of working with skills brokers. Finally, I thought that having such an experienced presenter in Michael Collie was an excellent decision – he helped to run things smoothly and kept interest.”
