Booking training is made easier with online tool

Booking a training room is now easier than ever with a new online space reservation tool.

Meeting and training room provider, etc.venues (pictured) has launched its online facility booking system where organisers and planners can reserve space in real-time.

Potential clients can visit the company's website and check availability across the whole portfolio of venues, select rooms and pencil the meeting in the diary. Once they have done that a member of the team ring them back to confirm the booking and take payment details.

David Owen, head of marketing at etc.venue said: "Until now the industry has been reticent to create such an online tool, citing the complex nature of meetings, particularly room layouts and additional services. Our clients were regularly asking us for such a tool and we wanted to provide it - and why not? If you can book flights and a hotel room online, why not a meeting room.

"We have always aimed to make the meeting process as simple as possible, our transparent costs and all-inclusive pricing are great examples and this online facility is further evidence of this approach.

"This online tool is ideal for planners, it allows them to identify possible dates and plan details, secure in the knowledge that the etc.venues team of experts are available behind the scenes to answer any queries they might have and make sure the event runs smoothly."
