Passionate about planning unique and unforgettable parties and events for various occasions but lack the professional skills to bring your vision to life? Whether you dream of coordinating unforgettable weddings, running large-scale corporate events, or building an event planninh business of your own, the Event Management & Wedding Planning Business Pathway turns your natural talent into professional skills and real business know-how.
Across New Zealand, weddings, festivals, conferences and corporate events all rely on organised, creative planners to bring them to life. From boutique bridal consultancies and wedding venues to event companies and in-house corporate roles, skilled event professionals are needed nationwide, and many successful planners run their own flexible businesses from home.
Designed by industry professionals, this pathway combines three courses in one, covering both sides of a successful events career: the planning craft and the business behind it.
Throughout this pathway, you'll cover:
Event Management: Master every stage of running an event, from developing the concept and managing logistics, resources and budgets through to marketing, risk management, staging the event on the day, and the all-important post-event review.
Wedding Planning: Learn the art of planning weddings from start to finish, including managing clients, vendors, locations, support services and the wedding day programme, plus dedicated modules on planning and operating your own wedding business.
Start Your Own Events Business: Gain the expertise needed to launch and scale your own events business. You’ll learn how to create business plans, execute marketing strategies, handle payroll, and perform financial analysis, ensuring your business is both successful and profitable. You’ll even receive personalised mentorship from an expert business coach!
This pathway course is endorsed by the Institute of Hospitality, an international professional body dedicated to professional development in hospitality and events, and delivered by a training provider accredited by the International Live Events Association, giving you credentials the industry recognises.
Verify Your Credential With SEEK Pass
When you complete your course you won't just walk away with new skills, you'll walk away with a credential you can prove. Upon completion you'll receive a unique SEEK Pass link to verify your certificate, which you can add straight to your SEEK profile. That means employers can see your credential is genuine the moment they view your application, helping you get noticed faster and stand out in a competitive job market.
