Course program
If you have enjoy all aspects of events from the styling and design to the planning and execution then this is the perfect course as it covers all the units offered in other courses in one big course. Upon completion you will be a Certified Master Special Event Planner and Designer.
Your course will include 25 assignments, 14 of which are based on authentic wedding briefs and 9 on corporate event briefs. These assignments will lead you through every stage of planning a wedding or event. You will be expected to treat your tutor as your client and the assignments you submit as your proposal. Effectively you are building yourself a portfolio as you make your way through the course, allowing you to hit the ground running upon graduation. The last two assignments in the course focus on starting your own business and gaining employment within the industry.
To further develop your skills and knowledge you will also be assigned an ongoing Event Design assignment which will be based on the launch of a new perfume. Your mission should you choose to accept it, is to put together a product launch for this perfume. You will be asked to interpret your client’s initial brief, brainstorm and create a concept, put together a client proposal, draft a budget, design your vision of the event within our software program and produce a client presentation.
Once your client (your tutor) is happy with your proposal and presentation you will then be asked to put together the PR campaign for the product and all the documents required to produce, manage and run the event. You ‘job’ will be to take this event from start to finish as part of your course.
The Advanced Diploma in Special Event Planning and Design is the most hands-on and comprehensive course available in the UK.
It includes 42 in-depth units that will equip students with the knowledge they need to work as professionals in any area of the Events Industry.
