Special Events Management via distance learning
From a royal wedding to the Summer Olympics and a state fair to a sales' conference; every special event requires planning, scheduling, organization, marketing, and legal issues. Event management resembles performing a high-wire act with no safety net existing underneath. Once the event starts; all is done in one take with no second chances or rehearsals. It is difficult to predict guests and suppliers interaction and reaction when brought together. Nevertheless, a competent special event manager is always prepared, alert, and organized. This program helps event managers, planners, and their clients to produce outstanding events that meet and exceed the expectations of both hosts and guests.
