Meeting & Event Management Careers Meeting Planner Event Manager Wedding Organizer Trade Show Organizer The Meetings industry is the fastest growing segment. http://www.bls.gov/ooh/business-and-financial/meeting-convention-and-event-planners.htm

According to the United States Department of Labor, the meeting, convention and events specialty is expected to grow by 44 percent from 2010 to 2020 much faster than the average for all occupations. (dol.gov). We have the foundation for building this specialty. Upgrading the existing specialty areas is a strategic move that would be beneficial both to our students and to the University with additional enrollments. http://www.bls.gov/ooh/business-and-financial/meeting-convention-and-event-planners.htm
