Develop events
management expertise for now and future growing
opportunities in business and MICE sector.
Singapore, 24 September 2008 -
An
innovative first of its kind events training program
sees growth in interest over the next few years with
more buzz being created in the Singapore's Mice industry
and across all sectors, due to the ongoing development
of the Integrated Resorts in Singapore.
From
Mr Lim Neo Chian's, CEO of the Singapore Tourism Board (STB),
point of view (the Straits Times report, September 3
2008), the future opening of the two integrated resorts
(IRs) in Marina Bay and Sentosa, as well as the Gardens
by the Bay in Marina South, will be a fillip for the
industry. He added that "Singapore also ranked top city
for business meeting, conventions".
With
the soaring growth of the mice and events organising in
corporations, companies, non-profit organisations,
voluntary welfare organisations, government sectors,
events management skills learning and upgrading become
essential to consistently and constantly
scale professional heights in Singapore.
The unique Events Management Action Program (EMAP)
project is the first of its kind training program
founded and created by the Singapore company, Comslink
International, and endorsed by the Association of
Professional Trainers, Singapore (APTS). It would be
held from 7 November 08 to 28 February 09. The second EMAP, to be held in Singapore, is now open for
registrations.
The
organisers of the EMAP hope that the project will help
organisations and individuals cast a wider net when
seeking new opportunities in the MICE sector.
