This course is perfect for those wishing to start their own business, as it also contains the business units from the Corporate Event Planning course. Many of the units will give you ‘Recognition of Prior Learning’ towards the Diploma of Events Management if you choose to follow this path. You will also be given the opportunity to work on a large scale event as part of your course.

Have you ever watched the Oscars and thought WOW - I would love to be on the design team for an event like this? If you have, then this course will put you on the right path.

Until now there hasn’t been a diploma course that is purely dedicated to the inner workings of Event Design. The Event Planning and Design Diploma will take you on an unbelievable journey into this field of event planning.

From when a client first approaches you with their event idea to creating and running the event, you will experience firsthand the complexities and excitement that comes with being an Event Designer. You will work with award winning event design software as part of your course materials and be given access to our new Virtual Campus.

Your entire course will be based around an ongoing assignment - 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 Event Planning & Design Diploma is the most hands-on and comprehensive course available in Australia and it will equip students with the knowledge they need to work as professionals in the Events Industry. The course is completely self-contained and will give you a defined career path at the end of it. Our tutors will be by your side every step of the way and through our Virtual Campus you will feel as though you have attended class without the hassle of ever having to leaving your desk.
