IAVM announces cancellation of 2020 Venue Management School

IAVM announces cancellation of 2020 Venue Management School
May 10, 2020

The International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM) has announced that due to the current status of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on the ability for students and faculty to travel, its 2020 Venue Management School will not be held.

Advising that the School, held each year in the USA during the northern hemisphere summer, "will resume as planned in 2021", the IAVM announced in a statement "the final decision to not hold the school this year was difficult to make, but it was in the best interest of all students, faculty and staff.

"Our members are our top concern, and our priority is always to provide the best educational and networking experiences while keeping you safe and healthy."

For students, the IAVM advised "all students currently registered have the option to either rollover their tuition, room and board to attend VMS 2021 or obtain a full refund without admin fee penalties.

"By rolling over these funds, you are guaranteed a spot in Year 1, Year 2, or GI for 2021 only, with no increase in pricing."

The Venue Management Association (Asia and Pacific)'s Venue Management School is modelled on the IAVM's Venue Management School and has reciprocal sharing arrangements where both students and instructors attend each other’s School.
