CFEE "FastTrack" Core Curriculum Seminar Program
Professional Certification is an important step in the career track of leaders in all industries. It enhances professional stature among ones peers; recognizes those who have gone beyond expectations to be the best that they can be; makes a statement to those with whom we do business; provides a leveraged position from which to negotiate and build career success; and sets higher standards for our industry. Through the IFEA’s Certified Festival & Events Executive (CFEE) program, industry professionals have the opportunity to achieve all these goals.
Now 25 years strong, the IFEA recognizes the desire by industry professionals to achieve these goals in a shorter period of time. In response to this, working with partner organizations, the IFEA is now able to provide our six (6) high level CFEE Core Curriculum Seminars, one of the main components of our CFEE Certification Program, at a fraction of the time, travel and costs, through our CFEE FastTrack Core Curriculum Seminar Program.
Designed for completion in a condensed period of time, (check plans for your area), each of the six core CFEE classes are led by some of the most successful event professionals in our field today. Offered in two blocks of 3 days each, the six CFEE Core Curriculum Classes include:
Best of all, through the support of partner organizations in each area, the IFEA is able to offer all six (6) of the CFEE FastTrack Core Curriculum Seminars at a total investment of $500 per participant. Yes, you heard correctly; all six (6) seminars for $500! (Seminars may be taken individually, at a rate of $175 each.)
Participants may choose to take these six core curriculum seminars for further professional education and/or they may choose to take them to count towards attaining their CFEE Professional Certification.
For those choosing to participate in the full CFEE Certification program*, additional requirements are necessary. Opportunities to complete all other CFEE program requirements will be offered to participants during the same time frame as the Core Curriculum Seminars are being offered, and may also be completed during this condensed timeframe or at your own pace.
