Course Description:

'' Some people think that anyone can produce an event and that
special skills or training aren’t required, but this type of thinking
leads to projects that are plagued with problems.
Festivals attract tourists as well as people from the local
community. The level of professionalism expected continues to
increase and event organizers are faced with the challenge of how
to create a more attractive cultural activity while working with
limited resources. Many non-profit and charitable organizations
are faced with stiff competition for community support and
corporate sponsorship, and they are constantly pressured to do
more for less.
Those charged with the responsibility of delivering a quality event
would benefit from the use of formal project management tools that
have been adapted to suit the needs of festivals and events. Those
tools, in combination with an increased knowledge of best
practices, will help make the next festival or event more successful
and more enjoyable for everyone.
This fundamental course is modular in nature and can be
presented in either 2 or 3 days.
