1. Kölner Moderatorentag

In the organizer's words:

Dear moderation enthusiasts,

A day that inspires.
A day that connects.
A day for everyone who lives and loves moderation.

On 28.02.2026 from 10:00 to 17:00 , the German Moderator Academy - accompanied by two experienced moderators, Babett Blankenmeister and Franziska Grabow - is celebrating a special premiere:

👉 The first KÖLNER MODERATORENTAG is here!

Under the motto "Learn, network, have fun", we are bringing together moderation enthusiasts - in interactive sessions, powerful keynote speeches and with plenty of room for real exchange. Together we will talk about the topics that really move us and make moderation better, livelier and more effective.

1) Speed dating for networking
In short, moderated rounds, you will get to know exciting colleagues - without the small talk trap, but with clear impulse questions. You go home with contacts, collaborations and fresh perspectives.

2) Improvisational theater for moderators
React spontaneously, stay confident when things "go differently": in improv training, you will learn to think quickly, stay relaxed, set punchlines and actively involve your audience - with a fun factor and lots of impact.

3) Positioning: How do I become visible and distinctive as a presenter?
What do you stand for? What topics, what attitude, what style? We work on your profile: Your moderation identity, your USP, your external impact - so that you are not "one of many", but the one to be remembered.

Special highlight:
Who doesn't want to make their audience laugh and win them over with humor?
Knacki Deuser, known to many from "NightWash", shows how humor really works on stage - in a practical way, with exercises and concrete take-aways that you can apply directly.

No matter whether you are just starting out or have been presenting for a long time:
The presenter day is for newcomers*, experienced professionals and real stage bunnies.

💶 Participation fee: 149 €* net
