trainee, this type of event needs a rooms or building establishment as compared to the
seminar and training workshop has a more on participants share than the speakers
share. The expert will just give instructions and directions on what the attendees must
do to accomplish the given task. So it‟s more on the participant‟s effort to do the task.

A workshop is a period of discussion or practical work on a particular subject in which a group

of people share their knowledge or experience.

A workshop is a long interactive meeting or educational session designed to create a

specialized result. Workshops are longer than the typical business meeting and
require more preparation beforehand. Workshops typically involve a central trainer or
facilitator who works with a set of sponsors to design the sequence of presentations,
plan collaborative activities, and ensure the workshop will lead to the desired result.
Workshops emphasize hands-on interaction. Strategic planning often includes one or
more planning workshops. Kickoffs, team chartering, requirements analysis, product
design, value stream mapping, and other meetings with large collaborative
deliverables may all be conducted as workshops.

a short period of time to concentrate on a defined area of concern. Purposes for workshops may
vary. Examples: Informing, Problem-solving, Training. In  education , a workshop is a brief intensive
course, a seminar or a series of meetings emphasizing interaction and exchange of information
among a usually small number of participants:

@an academic workshop, a smaller version of an academic conference.

@Training workshop

speaker means learning while doing he / she work. A workshop has the sense of being a relatively
small event with all parties involved in the discussion (although this is not always the
case). Workshops tend to be smaller and more intense than seminars. This format often involves
students practicing their new skills during the event under the watchful eye of the instructor.
The main difference between seminars and workshops is that seminars are usually more
academic and less hands-on than workshops. Seminars are events that are mostly geared
towards educational topics and usually feature one or more experts on the subject matter.
On the other hand, workshops are generally less formal and require more attendee
participation than seminars. The main thrust of workshops is for the participants to gain new
skills during the event under the guidance of the instructor.

Workshops tend to be more hands-on, while seminars are generally geared

more toward learning about a particular topic or related subtopics. They
might involve guest speakers who are experts in the relevant field to give
credibility to the information being presented.

SYMPOSIUM

Symposium is meeting of a number of experts in a particular field at which papers are presented by
specialists on particular subjects and discussed with a view to making recommendations concerning
the problems under discussion. Symposium: refer to any academic conference, or a style of
university class characterized by an openly discursive format, rather than a lecture and question–
answer format. The term symposium has come to refer to any event where multiple speeches are
made. A symposium suggests that more than one person is speaking. A Symposium is typically a
more formal or academic gathering, featuring multiple experts delivering short presentations on a
particular topic.

 A symposium is a casual gathering and includes refreshments and entertainment.

Symposiums usually take place in one room or lecture hall with all
participants attending the entire program in a single day. Besides regular
presentations, symposiums include sessions that invite more discussion and
exchange of ideas, such as panel discussions. The presenters and panelists
are renowned experts in the particular topic of the symposium.

In contrast to large annual conferences, symposiums are usually one-off

events, organized when the need arises for in-depth discussion of a particular
“hot topic” of research, and as such, the themes may change from year to
year.

The presenters and panelists at a symposium are usually a group of people

who already know each other at least a little because of their shared interest
and expertise in the topic of the symposium.

Students and trainees who attend a symposium are usually there as audience
members to learn from more established researchers rather than to present
 their own work, since flash talks and poster sessions are less common at
symposiums than conferences.

There may be a social event such as a cocktail reception or a speakers dinner

following the symposium, but it is usually a more formal networking occasion
rather than a party.

conversations, and to hear from thought leaders in the topic area. Also, expect everyone at the summit to
attend all of the sessions, as opposed to break-out panels. “You go to a summit when you want to learn a
lot,” Lutter explains.
 Summits tend to be formal and dedicated to the interests of a specific group of people. Lora
Georgieva, marketing specialist at ProExpo Services, calls out a few examples: top physicians, surgeons,
government representatives, company executives, or other high-caliber industry leaders.
 Summits typically focus on a specific problem. For instance, the problem may be a trending
international situation. Whatever the focus, summit trade events will have a well-structured agenda with
public announcements from leaders and public figures who will try to influence attendees with their
position or presented solutions. “At a summit, groups come together to tackle a problem and hopefully
walk away with a solution or an idea of how to move forward. Afterwards, attendees tend to have a better
sense of belonging and comradery,” says Claire O’Keefe, event producer at Canvas Meeting Space.
