NDP strived to create a unique, interactive and accessible learning space in which delegates could engage with empowering presentations in a virtual environment.

“The Eventeer Awards are a celebration of excellence in virtual and hybrid events. We are grateful to have helped National Disability Practitioners host Cultivating Your Disability Workforce conference this past year, and celebrate in their successes together,” said Muhammad Younas, CEO vFairs. “We congratulate those organisations who won and look forward to seeing them continue to thrive as leaders in their event category.”

NDS congratulates all nominees and winners.  We thank everyone who attended and voted for this event.
