Frequently asked questions
What facilities/skills do local organisers need to host a day?
· a room large enough for the number of delegates
· other rooms sufficient for anticipated numbers to divide into small groups (up to 5) for workshops – these break-out rooms are very important to the quality of the day
· good audio-visual equipment (a computer that takes PowerPoint, an OHP, a video with sufficient sound quality for the training room, flipcharts and lots of marker pens that work!)
· good food, coffee, tea, water etc.
· a detailed site visit by local organisers to ensure that a named person is responsible for logistics: refreshments, room organisation and all the complications that can occur on the day
· good organisation skills and back-up administration
· ideas and ability to market courses locally
· ideas to attract (and influence) stroke service providers beyond your immediate team members to broaden the audience and maybe spread the cost.
