Meeting Architecture as a discipline is seen by many as a future profession with it's proper education, available to all ages. Some see a master degree, some a certification, others yet another degree. Some say this is for associations, others say for universities and yet others for community colleges.

All of the above are right.

Most people I talk to agree that the Meeting Architecture curriculum is so vast and so new it will take some serious work and resources to create something that is comprehensive and worthy of broad and global support.
Therefore the draft MA curriculum has been put online, as a download PDF under a Creative Commons 2.0 license (CC).

All comments are welcome, use of it is free, you may copy and edit under this (CC) license.
But… it is my strong wish that you, if you want to use it, will become part of a group that is working on this curriculum and co create a strong end result that may lead to a global recognition of Meeting Architecture as a discipline and profession.
We need to collaborate, across borders, above and beyond competition.
Only in this open source way, the “Wikinomics” way, the Linux way, can this be small steps for us all, but a giant leap for the meetings industry.

I look forward to meet you here.
