One of the reasons EDJ enjoys utilizing the Cvent platform, especially in this age of COVID-19, is Cvent does so much to empower events industry professionals like ourselves. They have what seems like endless educational resources available, which the EDJ Virtual Events Team has taken full advantage of as we pivot to virtual events. These resources cover a broad range of subjects, from Cvent product changes to how to implement virtual events to best practices that ring true for the industry at large.

With COVID-19 safety concerns preventing in-person events at the moment, events industry professionals have had to make the big pivot to virtual events, determining new ways to deliver content, engage audiences, and be more resilient than ever before. EDJ has made that pivot. We have researched the leading virtual platforms, learned how best to transition our scheduled in-person events to virtual, and are working to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to know-how, implementation practices, and execution of virtual event best practices. Please check out this recording from the IMEX Group’s PlanetIMEX EduMonday Live virtual conference back on May 11, 2020. EDJ’s Virtual Events Team attended the session “The big pivot: Towards a regenerative events industry,” which highlights important considerations as events industry professionals pivot to a new normal.

“It is not that there will never be a stressful situation that presents in your life. It is that you will have the foundation, concepts and tools to not allow it to grab hold.

Unlike the physical exhaustion of an in-person event, virtual events can lead to a newer sensation dubbed “Zoom fatigue.” The slang refers to the mental exhaustion that comes from paying attention during a virtual meeting or event for a lengthy period of time, especially multiple times a day.

One way EDJ has made the big pivot in the events industry is by enrolling its Virtual Events Team into training courses for various certifications to keep us up-to-date and ahead of the curve. Several members of our team have Cvent certifications in Event Management, Event Management Advanced, and Mobile Event App since we use the Cvent platform almost exclusively for our registration and website needs.

Mindfulness is becoming more important than ever with the rise of virtual events during the COVID-19 pandemic. Check out this NYTimes article, “How to Be Mindful at Your Desk,” featuring wisdom from Dr. Deepak Chopra. It may be from 2017, but the words ring truer than ever now. Adopting mindfulness can help everyone—event and meeting professionals, as well as attendees—stay better focused, grounded in the present, and in control of stress. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/25/well/mind/how-to-be-mindful-at-your-desk.html
