Sundial Group – a specialist conference brand with three UK properties (in Northamptonshire, Surrey and Warwickshire) – has launched an exciting new scholarship programme for its employees, which will provide the opportunity to spend six weeks working in an overseas conference centre.
Sundial has for a long time been a committed member of the International Association of Conference Centres (IACC), a not-for-profit, facilities-based organisation whose mission is to assist members in providing the most productive meeting facilities around the world.
Through the association, the group has established links with a number of high-quality conference centres worldwide, and has now announced that these links will be opened up to team members by establishing an annual work experience scholarship programme.
Each autumn, Sundial Group will invite volunteers across all properties to put themselves forward for selection, offering the chance to work at an overseas conference centre for up to six weeks. The chosen candidate will be committed to the meetings industry, have a passion for learning and bring back ideas to share with colleagues in their field.
Tim Chudley, Sundial Group's managing director and a past IACC global president, explains: ‘This opportunity will provide the successful person with invaluable experience to be able to better perform in their position. We are always looking for innovative ways to be able to train our workforce, and by offering the chance to experience life in another dedicated conference venue, I am confident that they will become a part of developments and practice that they can bring back and share with us.’
Partner conference centres have already been identified in Canada, the USA, Australia and across Europe.
