If you request to attend a Training Day and they say that time away from the office is the main issue, then you need to make the conference seem as undisruptive as possible.

Years ago I would attend events with the sole purpose being to chat to my friends and drinking as many free glasses of wine as possible.

However, going to the first night’s event when attending an administrative conference is a great way to start meeting the people with whom you will spend the next 3 or 4 days. It also gives us an opportunity to be in a casual environment with our conference attendees so we can get to know them before we get very busy hosting the event.

However, if you always try to get out of networking events or fail to engage in discussions and socialising you’re likely to miss out on some great business opportunities. It’s important to understand that networking opportunities aren’t limited to conferences and corporate events. Don’t keep your cards close to your chest.
