Are you a good organiser? Do you enjoy planning? Do you pay attention to the little details that make all the difference? Are you always on the lookout for new ideas? If so – then perhaps you should consider a career in Event Management. Event management is about organising functions – large ones and small ones. It’s about working with caterers and fashion agents and marquee providers. It’s about booking bands, clowns and balloons. It’s about sourcing flowers made from vegetables, and cakes made from ice. Event management is also about planning and co-ordination. Understanding health and safety legislation. Knowing when you need licences or special permissions. Mostly, Event Management is about making creative ideas come to life and doing so professionally.

*PLEASE NOTE: Exam Fees of €85 are extra and are payable during the term.

Programme DescriptionThis Event Management course will teach you about planning and managing an event. It will teach you how to market an event, publicise it, generate interest and attract participants. You will learn about advertising, creating flyers and posters, organising competitions and creating merchandising. You will discover how to check licence requirements, what health and safety regulations you are bound by and what constitutes best practice in Event Management. Finally, you will learn how to evaluate the success of your event in terms of revenue generated, publicity secured and feedback from the audience who attended.
