For project managers, community organizers, meeting planners, and all members of a workplace team, MeetingMakers Academy is our public learning center, offering live workshops and courses for anyone ready to lead and participate in inclusive, engaging, and productive meetings.
There will be no live MeetingMakers Academy in 2026 as we focus on developing a MeetingMakers membership. In the meantime, check out our in-house workshops, podcast, and other meeting resources.
