Diploma in Event Management

The diploma in event management ensures students will be grounded with strong fundamental knowledge and practical skills in planning and executing events. The theoretical component of the programme enhances the learning experience through practical applications in project management. Ultimately, the learning of crucial knowledge and technical skills will lead to the development of key practical business skills involved in designing, marketing and managing events. 

Essential practical experience will be gained through a 20-week industry internship.
