12th Annual Success Canada Forum
Sunday, March 2, 2014
"Well organized, seen many serious students and quality visitors", "Although the attendance of the fair was affected due to political reason, I still met with some potential clients". That was the summary of our 12th Annual Success Canada Forum on March 2, 2014 that was unfortunately following the trend that happened a week before when the Embassy Asean Fair on Saturday and our seminar for Carleton on Sunday were "very slow" in attendees. Had the protesters were moved to another location a day or two earlier, we would have score another success in term of attendees just like last year. Nearby streets on our forum day were closed for "clean up" also after protesters moved out as many parents could not drive into the hotel venue.
Overall based on evaluation forms returned for all categories combined of accom./organization/registration/venue/experience/services/number of visitors/quality of visitors/quality of interpreters read as follows: Excellent 21/Very Good 30/Good 12/Average 7/Poor 6 (attendees). We will be offering something special for all participants as a token of appreciation for their support in participating at our forum due to this "uncontrollable factors" and all can be certain that we have taken all points raised from evaluation forms in getting back to where we belong for our future events same as our past successful events overall.
