ABC's of event planning in Atlanta

Meeting Room Setup/Configurations

* Conference and Hollow Square: Appropriate for interactive discussions and note-taking sessions for fewer than 25 people. Many meeting facilities can set a room up as an elegant boardroom for 10 to 20 people, equipped with full audiovisual capabilities, a writing board, cork board and a flip chart.

 

* E-shape, U-shape and T-shape: Appropriate for groups of fewer than 40 people. These are best for interaction with a leader seated at the head of the setup. Audiovisual equipment is usually set up at the open end of the seating.

 

* Ovals and rounds: Generally used for meals and sessions involving small group discussions. A five-foot-round table seats eight people comfortably. A six-foot-round table seats 10 people comfortably.

 

* Theater: Appropriate for large sessions and short lectures that do not require extensive note taking. This is a convenient setup to use before breaking into discussion or role-playing groups because chairs can be moved.

 

* Schoolroom or Classroom: The most desirable setup for medium to large-size lectures. This configuration requires a relatively large room. Tables provide attendees with space for spreading out materials and taking notes.
