Print up a list of all those who have registered to attend; and check if anyone appears to be missing (and follow up, if necessary). Make name tags for all participants and the presenters (if they are being used - they may not be necessary if everyone knows everyone; but might be helpful for presenters from outside your country). Make up signs to be used at the venue, eg. to be placed at the entrance pointing to the room being used, perhaps showing where the toilets are. If any gift or something similar is to be presented to the presenter/s at the end of the seminar or workshop, make sure it is ready. Collect all the things you need to take to the venue, or make sure they are being delivered to the venue. A checklist is at Tool 4.1 Of course, arrive early, as there will be many things to check! Use the checklist of things to check on arrival. Take it with you to the venue. A checklist is at Tool 4.2 As well as checking these things, there are other things to do. Use the checklist (in Tool 4.2) you take to the venue. If everything is going to be covered, it is important that time is managed well during the activity. Here are some hints: Start the seminar or workshop on time. Don’t wait for those arriving late: it is better to encourage those who did arrive on time. Don’t repeat things for the late-arrivals. They will have to catch up later. Confirm with the chairperson or moderator of the seminar or workshop, and / or the presenters, that you want to ensure that each session starts and finishes on time. This might require the chairperson or moderator having a bell or some way of indicating to a presenter that time is running out or has run out.
