About Jodi Vanwoerkom

Highly skilled meeting professional with over 15 years of progressive association experience. Participation in strength assessments have taught me that I am fascinated by ideas and how those ideas can be applied to internal processes, software and event technology, and event execution to increase efficiency, metrics, attendee engagement, and revenue targets.My focus has been on event technology and how it can enhance our live and virtual events. I’ve been consistently told by event technology vendors that I “should come work for us” based on my breadth of knowledge and understanding of their product. I firmly believe that systems should be able to easily talk to each other and that API’s are the cornerstone of efficiency.Areas of expertise include strategic planning, customer service, project and event management, budget planning and operations, cross-departmental collaboration, Continuing Medical Education Credits (CME) and ACGME requirements, and vendor relationship management.Software expertise includes Event Pilot, Pathable, Crowd Compass, CVENT, Community Brands/Attendee Interactive, Map Your Show, and CadmiumCD.Certified Meeting Professional (CMP).Virtual Events Institute Professional (VEIP).
