Florida Chapter
Entry Details
Our partner-driven education program has been a game-changer for the Florida Chapter. By replacing the old paid webinar model with 25+ hours of complimentary, high-value sessions, we’ve delivered $12,000+ in annual savings while giving members direct access to industry leaders and fresh solutions. It’s built stronger ties with our partners, boosted engagement across the chapter, and created a year-round stream of education that informs, inspires, and connects.
Implementation
We are constantly looking for ways to enhance our offerings to members while also increasing the value to our corporate partners and supporters. This initiative provided the perfect solution to achieve both. Implementation began by working closely with our partners to design and deliver high-quality, topic-driven sessions that could be accessed virtually, removing barriers for a chapter as geographically vast as ours. The general reaction from members has been overwhelmingly positive. Attendance has been strong, and feedback highlights the appreciation for flexible, alternative learning opportunities that fit busy schedules. Members value the practical insights and industry expertise, while partners appreciate the platform to share solutions and strengthen relationships. This program has not only expanded access to education but also created a sustainable model of engagement that enhances the experience for everyone involved.
