For the first time, The BIG e is using SCHED.org as our online planner for our conference. We are very pleased with the ease of managing our conference data and the organization of the planner itself. With the use of SCHED, The BIG e will provide our attendees with a more manageable, enjoyable conference experience.

Here are some of the great SCHED tools you can utilize once you have registered for The BIG e:

NOTE: This DOES NOT register you for the conference or for specific classes, it just creates a schedule for you to follow at the event.  You will still need to register to attend.

Event Schedule:

  • Create your own schedule or personal agenda for the day
  • View it in simple, expanded, grid, or by venue
  • Includes an interactive calendar of events
  • Syncs with Google Calendar, Outlook & Apple iCal
  • When you click on a class you can click on “Add to My Schedule” and it will automatically add it to your own personal schedule.
  • You can download it to your phone using the App.
  • See which of your friends are going to a specific class
  • Post your schedule on FB and Twitter
  • Email your schedule to your friends – you can even email specific classes

Use the Mobile Web App for iPhone, Android & Blackberry and bookmark Sched on your phone by  visting: http://thebige2012.sched.org/mobile
