Has anyone else noticed that there is nothing Education related at the Tessitura Conference in Denver? I'm just wondering when Tessitura will acknowledge that there are so many of us who use Tessitura for our Education departments. I'm just curious how others feel.
Hi Michelle, Planning for TLCC Denver was a bit different this year, because we were uncertain how people would feel about traveling to large in-person gatherings. When planning content, we considered past conference attendance, attendance at last year’s virtual TLCC, and activity by job-role on the website. Individuals in Education roles were not well-represented in any of those datasets. Therefore, our programming for 2022 is more focused on Fundraising, Ticketing, Marketing and Digital.
As in past conferences, all attendees are welcome to bring topics to community-led discussions, and there are many opportunities to do so throughout the conference.
Thank you for your feedback. As we plan future conferences, we will definitely keep in mind your interest in seeing more Education content.
I didn't notice any time slots in the schedule or any mention of Open Spaces. Will there be Open Spaces at TLCC this year or not?
Hey Chris! We are hosting Community Discussions which are a lot like Open Space, but a few tweaks. Those time slots will be added to the schedule soon. There will be 9 opportunities for discussions and you will be able to submit topics in advance starting in early August to make it easier to build your schedule.
