Triple C Workshops

Triple C is a series of quarterly workshops where communicators from both UBC campuses come together to learn from one another, strengthen communication skills and build relationships.

Triple C started simply as coffee, cookies and conversation and is now officially about building capacity, community and consistency. We try to keep it informal, and tailored to what UBC communicators tell us they want to see, hear and discuss. Some sessions lend themselves to small, intimate discussions between specific groups of communicators, others to a broader audience.

Either way, we hope you’ll walk away with tips, tricks and answers to your questions. We want you to meet some of your fellow communicators, and feel supported in your communications work.

Next session

Thursday, October 24 9:30 a.m. – 11:00 a.m

Topic: Event organizing: “Tips and tricks I wish someone had told me.” A peer-led learning circle.  

What to expect:

A more intimate Triple C event that gives attendees the option to listen to a range of peers from both campuses share their event-planning tips and learnings on topics such as event promotion, managing hybrid events, logistics, managing scope creep, managing risk, mobilizing others to co-manage events and getting events back on track.

The peer-led learning circle will be followed by breakout rooms for those wishing to connect and discuss questions and scenarios put forward by members of the group.

The focus will be on online, hybrid or in-person events, small- to medium-size, with little or no budget.

Intended takeaways:

  • Tips on how to improve your event organizing skills 
  • New connections and support when it comes to event planning

  • Issues Management 101
