Association Event Management
Run member events, annual programmes, and CPD/CE across every learning activity without turning your team into a records office.
The challenge
Where this gets hard
Event organizers deal with a specific set of problems. Here is what we hear most often.
Member learning is bigger than one event
Members earn CPD/CE through live sessions, workshops, watched recordings, assessments, and manual adjustments across the year. A single event attendance report does not tell the whole story.
CPD/CE is cheap to do right and costly to do wrong
When credits, certificates, and member records sit in different systems, your team ends up reconciling spreadsheets, answering member queries, and fixing records after the event.
Member systems need event context
Registration, attendance, and CPD/CE outcomes need to stay aligned with your member records. If your event platform cannot work with your member system, the gaps become manual work.
Member campaigns rarely connect to member outcomes
Renewal pushes, event series promotion, CPD/CE reminders, and partner campaigns are often measured by email clicks instead of registrations, learning, attendance, and watched recordings.
Solution
How ema handles it
Purpose-built for event organizers, not adapted from a generic project tool.
CPD/CE across every activity
Set eligible activities once, then gather credits from live sessions, workshops, watched recordings, check-ins, forms, assessments, and approved manual adjustments.
Multiple programmes in one organisation
Run different credit rules for member groups, certification pathways, recurring event series, or accrediting bodies without creating a separate tracking process for each one.
Certificates members can trust
Members can access their CPD log and certificates. Public verification lets employers, accrediting bodies, and association staff check certificate authenticity.
Member-system alignment
Keep member data, registrations, CPD/CE credits, and reporting records aligned with your member system.
Marketing intelligence for member activity
Connect campaign work to registrations, CPD/CE participation, attendance, watched recordings, member renewals, and partner activity without rebuilding the story by hand.
