If you are planning a business event such as a training day, a computer course, a
conference or anything along those lines, sound planning is absolutely essential.
Without adequate planning your event could end up being an unprofessional
shambles and this is surely not the image you would like to project to people in
your organisation, or indeed to clients or customers. Of course most corporate event
organisers plan meticulously to avoid such possibilities, but here at Edinburgh
Training and Conference Venue we can help you make sure your event is a success by
planning it with you.

Our Edinburgh conference venue does everything it can to make your conference
or training session successful and our team of skilled staff can help you by doing
things such as setting up rooms with suitable equipment. We will also provide support
in technical areas and wherever else we can help. So, get in touch with us today to
discuss your needs and together we can plan a winning event.

If you are a manager or someone who runs training sessions or conferences then you
will be aware of the importance of having suitable facilities to present effectively. It is
not easy being an orator and the task can be made even harder if the conference centre
that you hire does not work with you to help you run a successful event. However,
here at Edinburgh Training and Conference Venue you can rest assured that you will
have our full support, so you can have your audience’s full attention.

At this Edinburgh conference venue our staff will work with you to plan the perfect
corporate event and whether you are presenting to 20 people or 200, we will help
you set up a room in the best possible way. We know that it is important for a session
leader to have plenty of space to stroll around so we ensure that this is the case, as
well as supplying desks and stands for papers, notes and any other materials required.

Today’s society is becoming increasingly aware of our environment and the damage
that is done to it by not being energy efficient. That is why here at Edinburgh Training
and Conference Venue we make every effort we can to be green.

Energy efficiency is all important these days and at this Edinburgh conference venue
we strive to do as much as we possibly can to conserve energy and subsequently do
our bit for the environment. We only use energy efficient light bulbs and an energy
efficient air conditioning system; we even have an energy efficient dishwasher so if
you spend some time with us you can do so with a conscience as clean as the plates.

The coffee we serve is fair trade too, which means that you get a tasty cuppa and the
people who produced the beans will be paid fairly for it and therefore be able to help
their own developing communities.

These are only small things but they add up and can make a real difference, so when
booking an Edinburgh conference venue, remember that at Edinburgh Training and
Conference Venue, we really care.

All day conferences can be tiring so it is vital that your delegates can remain refreshed
and alert so the day can be as productive as possible. Here at Edinburgh Training
and Conference Venue we provide complimentary meals to keep the energy up and
refreshments such as tea and coffee.

This is no normal coffee though; we offer Columbian fair trade coffee which is
delicious and very restorative. This Edinburgh conference venue also operates a
bottomless cup policy so that you never get thirsty and so you can pep yourself up
whenever you want.

If you are not a coffee drinker fear not as we have a huge selection of great teas
including organic tea, green tea, herbal tea and fruit tea.

We really are an Edinburgh conference venue that cares about people being happy so
we will make sure that you never go hungry or thirsty.

Holding the attention of your audience is difficult at the best of times. Participants that
become thirsty, hungry or tired will not be able to concentrate on what you have to say which
could result in an unproductive and ultimately unsuccessful conferencing event.

Here at Edinburgh Training Centre, we believe it is time that the workroom had a few home
comforts. That is why we ensure your attendees are catered for all day long. Keep their
attention span up with everything from complimentary breakfasts to lunch time treats. Our
venue has something to suit everyone’s tastes and requirements.

We like to be the icing on your cake. Where most venues would provide drinking water,
we offer unlimited chilled water with a selection of cordials. Fancy a cuppa? We stock an
unrivalled range of coffee and teas that you can add honey to.

Whatever your corporate needs, we can meet and surpass your expectations with cost-
effective catering for your conferencing event. For more information, browse our range of
complimentary refreshments online today.
