About Event Leadership Institute
Professionals working in the event and meetings industry are diverse; ranging from those whose full-time job is planning events, to planners who are occasionally asked to take on events as an additional facet of their job.
No matter who oversees planning, every event has the same expectation; event goals must be achieved. The event must have the look, feel and functionality that the paying client or decision maker envisioned. And because events happen in real time, planners only have one shot to get it right.
The Event Leadership Institute was created with this in mind. Regardless of your experience level, how long you’ve been in the industry or how many events you plan per year, we want to help you get it right by providing you the training and knowledge you need for success.

Event & Meeting Management Fundamentals
I was working towards my CMP certification and needed to get a large number of education credits in a short period of time. Your website worked perfectly for this...I really liked how each course was "pre approved" by the CIC and indicated how many credits it was wort -
Fundraising Event Management Cert (Independent Study)
The classes being provided are simply excellent for business owners. I've been searching for more than 12 months for courses and information about operating an events business and became very frustrated with associations focusing on event delivery skills and nothing to do with operating an event business. My subscription to ELI has been so valuable in such a short period of time - keep up the good work! -
Fundraising Event Management Cert (Independent Study)
What took me a decade to learn on the job, is now available in the most succinct and accessible format thanks to ELI. I can count on ELI to deliver the professional and innovative training my team and I need to remain competitive and cutting edge. An ELI membership is one of the smartest investments an events business owner can make. -
