Familiarisation (FAM) tours and receptions are excellent ways for you to gain exposure and promote your organisation or association to workshop registered educators and agents.

FAM tours allow you to take advantage of the large number of industry multipliers attending the workshop and attract them to visit your organisation.  Effective FAM tours highlight the various product offerings enabling the attendee to increase their product knowledge and bring back first hand experience and information to potential students.

Receptions allow you to host educators and agents in a memorable way while reinforcing your brand. Inviting the participants that you wish to target gives you the chance to make meaningful and focused connections in a relaxed and fun environment.
