2011 2015 BA (Hons) Leisure MarketingBournemouth University

Being a four year sandwich course, this degree includes a placement year to commence in my third year. Prior to this,

leisure marketing has equipped me with skills that will aid me in the working environment through topics such as:marketing communications; financial reporting and consumer experience and behaviour. Within year one and year two ofmy degree I have had to deliver presentations to lecturers, company managers and fellow peers, indicating myexceptional communication skills. An example of this is a Dragons Den style presentation created forPelhams ParkLeisure Centre. Based upon our creative execution we were able to generate a new product complete with profitprospects and our break-even schedule.

Throughout my educational experiences, I have become literate in Microsoft Office as evident from my A* GCSEcoursework grade. I have an understanding of Microsoft Excel as a module entitled Financial Appraisal has required theuse of spread sheets to enter and analyse numerical data. The use of Microsoft Excel in terms of numerical data requiresa high attention to detail as all numbers need to be correct in order to have accurate results.

Group work is an essential element of my degree, however at times I have been pro-active and researched during my

free time to help encourage progression- as seen from my second year event for leisure innovation. I was responsible forevent design and public relations and created social media accounts to communicate information with our desired targetmarket as well as formulating a set of aims and objectives for our event to comply with.
