Start your career in events with Australia’s only specialist event management college

I've really enjoyed the course! Coming from doing a more theory-based University course, the Online PLUS course is more interactive and I feel more connected to my peers; which sets foundation for when we are employed in the industry. I also appreciate that teachers respond very quickly, are approachable, super friendly, supportive and always willingly to help! Most of all, everyone's very passionate and wants us to succeed. The Weekend Workshop has been a highlight of the course, I can't say there's been an excursion quite like it in my education so far. It was insightful and confirmed for me that the Events Industry is where I want to be.

I was completing a Bachelor of Business majoring in Events Management but didn't find the course specific enough for what I wanted to gain. I switched to College of Event Management. From day one I was immersed in the world of event management. By having lecturers working in the industry and the work placement that is required, I believe there is an equal amount of theory and practice which no other college provides.

Volunteering at different events was definitely a highlight of the course. Being a part of event day is a great way to learn on your feet and experience first hand the different difficulties and tasks that have to be overcome to run an event smoothly. Going on site visits was also a highlight - having an inside look at different venues was a great experience.

I absolutely loved the environment and facilities. Having a smaller class and being able to have that one-on-one time with lecturers was great. All of the lecturers had their own unique advice, experience and expertise in different areas which allowed us to learn from real events, not just hypothetical ones.
