AMRC Material Quality Workshop, October 30, 2007
Note: feedback from your evaluation forms was very encouraging with the most used word being "informative".
You liked the fact that the moderator kept things moving and on time (thanks, Phil).
Many of you appreciated the breadth of the perspectives and were particularly interested in hearing industry's side.
We made a point of having a Q&A session at the end of each session, instead of holding questions till the end of the day, and many of you felt this was a good move and appreciated the moderator repeating the questions from the floor so all could hear.
- We are planning to bring in question cards for our next workshop so that questions may be handed in at the end of each session and the moderator will then read the questions. This should eliminate the risk of some not hearing and should make it easier for those who are reticent about speaking in public.
Clearly, the number of people who ended up attending the workshop made things little crowded for some and we appreciate your patience. We always try to anticipate last-minute attendees and non-registrants but this one ended up being our biggest non-spring workshop yet. As noted in the workshop, we are looking at bringing in a fee scale that will encourage people to register well ahead of time. This makes it easier to organize seating and food.
Most of you loved the food, although a couple felt kebabs and Mediterranean salad was a bit exotic and would have preferred sandwiches and cold cuts.
- We have always had really good food at our workshops and we plan to keep it that way. (We truly appreciate the time you take to complete our evaluation forms. With the MURFE giveaway we were able to persuade many more of you to take the time to complete the forms, giving us a lot more confidence that the we have a true representation of those present.)

AMRC/CCC Organics - Grow on Workshop, April 5, 2007

AMRC 2007 Spring Workshop and AGM, February 14-16, 2007
Note: we are pleased to report that the feedback from your evaluation forms was very positive. We went with daily evaluations this year and this gave us more and better insights into how we did. Thanks for your co-operation! Some felt we tried to pack too much into the agenda, meaning some sessions were a bit rushed. Some felt that some presenters tried to say too much on one slide and that the size of print was too small. As usual with Hockley Valley, you loved the food and the ambience.


AMRC/OWMA Co-operative Contract Design, October 4, 2006
Note: feedback from your evaluation forms was very positive. A couple of attendees felt that the print on some of the slides could have been larger and we will encourage future presenters to use larger fonts and to highlight particularly significant slide details in their presentations. You also loved the food! (We appreciate the time you take to complete our evaluation forms. All future proceedings listings here will have similar feedback.)
