Irish Academy of Public Relations Diploma in Event Management
From booking venues to dealing with last minute crisis, event management is a varied, dynamic and exciting career, and many thrive on the responsibility involved in taking an event or project from conception through to reality.
If you enjoy organising and planning, have a keen eye for detail, like promotions and dealing with others, and handle responsibility well, then perhaps it’s time to look at a career in event management or event planning. From wedding planning to organising international conferences and sporting events, there is a world of opportunity waiting for you, and gaining a well recognised diploma in the area will not only equip you with the tricks of the trade, but will significantly enhance your employability in the industry.
The 15 modules contained in the Irish Academy of Public Relations Event Management Diploma will equip you with the skills and knowledge to take an idea or concept and develop it into an event, market and promote the event through various platforms and liaise in a professional way with important clients and stakeholders to ensure the smooth running of events. You’ll also learn how to react in a crisis, as even the best planned events sometimes go wrong.
Topics covered include principles of event management, research, preparing proposals, crisis management planning, seeking sponsors, organising the event, marketing tools, maximising media coverage, promotional tools, specialist areas, staffing & compliance, managing attendance, and evaluation.
The course fee includes tuition, Irish Academy of Public Relations registration, and the examination fee.
