What will the Emcee Training conference include?
You’ll get to hear from Bob Horner who has had many years of experience as an emcee, most notably at our biennial staff conference at CSU. He will share all the knowledge he’s gained over the years to help you learn how to be an excellent emcee. You’ll also get to participate in several ‘comm drills’ where you’ll practice your public speaking/emcee skills and receive constructive criticism from an experienced communication coach.
