Chrissie Beck, founder, Worlds Better, said: “I love the events industry, but I can see that we are not transitioning towards a sustainable future fast enough. I’ve found that most event managers in the industry care deeply about their work, its legacy and want to produce sustainable events but are quickly blocked by not knowing what to do, whilst also under considerable time and brief constraints. I’m thrilled to have combined my passion for education with my experience and knowledge into this course, with the overall goal to provide event professionals everything they need to deliver sustainable events even in the most challenging of circumstances, making the world better one event at a time.”
