Fabulous Venue



Professional Education and Conference Center
at Kent State Stark in Canton, Ohio

Five star hotels have absolutely nothing on this facility. I know, I have held events around the country, at some great resorts. But the Financial Analysis workshop that I organized here in June 2005 for Dr. Howard Meeks, with keynote by Dan Hanlon, was a success as much for the venue as the exceptional material presented.

If you notice the venue, it is usually a bad thing. The environment needs to be conducive without taking center stage. That is exactly what Doug and the team at conference center provide. In fact, here is their description of our meeting room:

HOOVER-MAYTAG SEMINAR ROOM

Special tiered design allows for a high-level of interactivity among participants in an intimate setting with the latest technology. The Hoover·Maytag Seminar Room is patterned after a similar facility in the Steinberg Center at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Although this room can accommodate up to 56 participants, it is arranged in an intimate setting. The seminar room has a built-in television monitor and computer connections to allow participants to use the latest in computer-based presentation technology. This room also has telecommunications access and features a ceiling-mounted video projector, as well as internal connections to the Center's television network.

For those flying or driving to our event, we can recommend the Holiday Inn.
