Services
Planning and delivering a successful event is a time-intensive endeavor. From the outset of planning, through the delivery of the program, there are a myriad of details to consider and needs to anticipate. OCEPS is equipped to provide professional support and assistance with managing all the details. Our commitment to excellence and customer service will ensure your participants enjoy their experience. Regardless of how large or how small, our staff will help you with all aspects of delivering a successful conference program.
- Location– Determining the right location to host your event is one of the most important decisions you will make in planning a successful conference. OCEP’s management team will help you pick a venue conducive to learning as well as cost-effective for your program budget.
- Logistics and Planning– When planning an event, there are countless details that can be overlooked and could cause a great program idea to go flat. OCEP’s team will work with you to create a timeline of milestones and a checklist of tasks to keep your conference on target. From beginning to end, our priority is to provide complete support every step of the way. One key service that our team can provide is the creation and maintenance of a conference website for use in marketing and sharing information with participants.
- Preparing for the Event– OCEP’s planning team is capable of developing a comprehensive action plan to facilitate an incredible experience on campus.
- On-Site Management– In addition to the preparations leading up to an event, our staff can provide on-site management experience for your program. These services include staffing registration tables, coordinating catering according to the event agenda, and serving as official hosts to your guests on your behalf. We delight in making your guests feel welcome and look forward to the opportunity to be at their service. Other on-site services may include handling walk-in registrations, coordinating audio-visual needs, and taking care of unexpected situations that may arise. Our team works will keep the program running smoothly and make sure your guests are satisfied.
