Empowering more inclusive and sustainable independent live entertainment communities
What's New in the Training Hub
The NIVF Training Hub continues to grow into a single point of access for on-demand trainings, materials, and templates created for the independent live entertainment community.
Recent upgrades include:
Streamlined navigation so you can quickly find sessions by topic, from safety and security to marketing, workforce development, and equity-focused trainings
Clear tagging for accessibility content so your team can easily return to this February session and related resources any time.
A refreshed library structure that makes it easier to share specific sessions and materials across your staff for onboarding and ongoing training.
These updates are designed to save you time, support staff turnover, and keep critical knowledge in-house—even as your team evolves.
Train Your Staff with the Improved Training Hub + February’s Live Session
In this session, you will gain a greater understanding of accessibility and the business case around it.
Nearly 28% of U.S. adults have a disability. If your venue or festival isn’t actively engaging this community, you’re leaving a significant audience untapped. Businesses that prioritize disability inclusion see up to 30% higher net revenue.
We hope you leave feeling empowered to better serve your communities by being welcoming to a more diverse customer base and will be armed with specific strategies to help your venues and festivals grow by serving the disability community.
