Case Studies - Diploma in Event Planning

Lorri StClaire, California

Why did you enrol on the course?

I wanted to learn more about holding business conferences, and perhaps eventually create some extra income for myself as well. I do international conferencing at work, and thought that formal training would help me in future events.

Did you make any contact with the Institute before enrolling?

Once, to clarify details regarding the course completion and what kind of certificate was involved.

What was your impression of the course when it arrived?

I was a little disappointed at first when I saw the big binder full of assignments. I was expecting books and some computer programs. Ultimately I found the course to be very informative and was impressed with the assignments.

Did you consider any other courses?

Yes, I looked into local courses, but did not have the time to attend classes. There were no online classes in this subject that I found would cover the extent that this one offered.

What might you say to someone who was thinking of enrolling on the course?

Definitely take this course. You will learn a lot to help you even with everyday events as well as large venues, and will challenge your creativity with each assignment.
