This year I have been studying
Events Management.
Within the course you learn not
only about events but all the key features of the media industry. But other
than all the subjects I have learnt. I have developed many new skills that will
help me in my event career path! During the course I have developed specialist
skills, employability skills, core skills, personal learning skills and social
and community skills.
In the course you study many
subjects: Marketing and PR, Writing copy, page layout. You cover a variety of
things that can help you in all aspects of events whether it’s promoting using
a video or poster or learning the legal side of creating an event. For example
in the subject ‘understanding video and technology’ I have learnt how to use a
camera (something I never thought I would understand) and what shots make a
piece of work look effective, this will help me in promoting events. In the
lesson page layout and design I can use my layout skills to make a poster look
professional and aesthetically pleasing in order to promote my event well.
Events Management allows you to be
very independent. If you need to book a specific place in the college or email
an expert you must find the resources yourself, to some people this could sound
a right pain but to be honest it’s really helped me, I’m now self-reliable and
can crack on with things which makes task a lot more time efficient and overall
it’s really helped my communication skills.
Within events a key part of it is
work experience this can help you with getting a job in the industry or getting
into university. There are a variety of job roles you can follow in events:
Marketing and communication manager
Events and hospitality event planner
Sales assistant (In store events)
