“My time at The Event Academy taught me about all different aspects of the events world with amazing event professionals. I was able to grow in confidence and step out of my comfort zone with support from the lecturers and Event Academy team throughout my time here and I would recommend the course to anyone who wants to start out in events on broaden their knowledge about all things event management!”

“What a course, what a journey! It has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have undertaken. The course (post-grad online) is second to none with inspiring, knowledgeable, and leading in their field tutors. They share firsthand experience and guidance that is invaluable when embarking on a career in events. Despite learning online, the course is very interactive – there are two projects where you will have the opportunity to work with your peers, some of whom are based on the other side of the world. My journey has been challenging working full time and everything else life throws in the way, but the encouragement and motivation of my tutor, Clare, has got me through. I have met amazing people and made some friends for life. My only wish is that I had done this course earlier in my career. That said, I have new skills and a deeper understanding that apply to all the events in my current role and valid experience I shall take as I navigate my career. Having researched many courses in events, it becomes difficult to understand or know which course is right for you. This course is not just good value for money. It is accredited by the CIM (Chartered Institute of Marketing) which is recognised internationally as a base mark for marketers. This makes this stand out; in addition to the talented tutors (leading in their field) and the vast experience of various events from festivals to weddings to fashion shows – the course covers everything! If you live in London – attend in person – striking that bond with your tutors – you'll never know what it might lead to (work experience in events); you'll also get to ask questions live and in person. If you can't make it to London, enrol on the online courses – they are just as good, and it’s an opportunity to make friends with people across the globe! Thank you to everyone at the Event Academy for supporting me through my tumultuous journey. You have been steadfast, and I would not have gotten through this without you! You have an incredible team, and I will endeavour to take on the experience shared throughout my career – THANK YOU!”

“I recently completed the Events Management online diploma, whilst working full time. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found the content engaging. I enjoyed the pace of the online course as you can complete the modules at a time that was suitable for your lifestyle. The lectures were very informative and Student Services always answered any queries I had in a timely manner. I would highly recommend the Event Academy for anyone starting out in Event Management or currently working in the industry to strengthen their skills.”

“I’ve loved doing the online diploma course. The course content was so well constructed and I really felt involved with the academy even though I was solo studying at home. The directions for completing the final project and exam were really clear, and student services have been so helpful and quick to respond. The only negative comment I have is, I got no feedback once I’d completed the course. This is a little disappointing as I feel like I’ve dedicated all that time and get no written comments back at all other than my grade. Other than this, I couldn’t recommend the Event Academy enough to get a step up in the events world.”

“The Event Academy run an amazing course which I was very lucky to be a part of from February 2023 until May 2023. I did the Diploma in Event Management for Marketing and Communications and loved it! Every staff member of The Event Academy and their guest speakers were all super helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about their industry which was lovely to experience. No question could ever be classed as a silly one - they always found an answer for you! The course was 2 nights a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays for 2.5 hours at a time. We crammed lots in but the time seemed to fly by. Each session was different and really information and packed full of very useful information. Met some amazing likeminded peers who were also lovely and it was refreshing to study alongside people who actually want to learn. I would highly recommend this course!”

“When joining the Event Academy my aim was to update my event knowledge and skills in order to gain a permanent role within the industry and I am thrilled to say after completing my online diploma that I have a role within an incredibly exciting event team. Within in 3 weeks I had been out in Amsterdam, twice, and since then have the prospect of travelling even further afield. If you are thinking about joining the Event Academy - do it! It is the best investment. Huge thank you to Lorne for making sure I chose the right course that suited my needs and to Rosie, Rebecca and all the team who delivered brilliant seminars and offered constant guidance and support. Finally a huge shout out to Student Services and to Natalie - I wasn't aware EA helped with recruitment and it is down to her emails and support that I am working in the Events industry as my role is one she suggested. I cannot thank the team enough!”

“If you want to become an Event Planner, this is the course for you. Even though I was not living in the UK I felt part of the team. The online workshops were done in such a way that everyone was included. Clare has a genuine passion for her work and her students and nothing is too much trouble. All online workshops were interactive and informative. The library of videos covering the different subjects were professionally produced and gave valuable information that can be instantly applied to being an Event Planner. The projects are set up in a way that you get to cover all aspects of event planning. This course is excellent value for money and you will walk away ready to be a Event Planner.”

“I had a great time with the Event Academy. It had been just what the doctor ordered. I found it as i wanted to step up in my events career, but what I discovered was more lessons in project management and marketing to accompany the curriculum, which really came in handy. Made me care more about the environment with "Sustainability", validate my "Creativity" as well as understanding "Budget", "Risk Assessment" and "Production" a lot more. Though is was an intense two weeks, the course and tutors were very helpful, accommodating and comforting, provided a very resourceful online system, met some wonderful people and visited some cool places, some of which, whilst close to me, had never even stepped inside. With my schedule this is all i could afford both conveniently and financially but is very worth it and has provided me with the confidence to seek out experience and engage with the various companies in the sector. Thank you again! 👍🏾”

“I strongly recommend completing the Event Academy's Diploma in Event Management Course. This course is accredited by the highly reputable Chartered Institute of Marketing. The course content is comprehensive but delivered in a digestible way by industry professionals. I selected the ‘blended’ learning option, which was very flexible, as it allowed me to participate in the class discussions and complete the coursework at my own pace. The course materials include videos, and downloadable documentation as well as, live job opportunities that students can apply for. Through the course, I have made a lot of connections with event industry professionals including, Natalie from the Event Academy team who regularly keeps in contact and assists me with finding event jobs. I cannot recommend this course enough.”

“I would like to thank Event Academy for the last couple of years providing me with support and giving me a huge amount of confidence in events throughout completing the online foundation and postgraduate. I would never have imagined hosting my very own fundraiser for my last assignment but it was one of the best experiences of my life.”

“It was great to finally to a study that’s actually related to my field of work and that enables studying next to a full time job. It wasn’t too easy which often happens with online courses, but it was still doable due to flexibility and timing of courses.”

“I started my course during the first and The Event Academy supported me throughout the course. Despite being London-centric, the online course was well delivered an extremely informative with plenty of opportunities for extra learning. The only thing I would ask for is for more volunteering opportunities across the North of England, but I realise that this is event specific and arguably most of the larger events take place in the South East”

Only now, a few weeks later, am I beginning to realise just how much I have learnt. Thank you to all at The Events Academy for the experience of a life time. Can't recommend it enough. Hold on tight, throw yourself into it and get ready for the journey of a lifetime!! Brilliant.”

“I have just completed my diploma and the course allowed me to try out various different areas within event management to see where I felt most comfortable and where I could achieve the most. The staff have always been extremely responsive and helpful when dealing with both positive and negative issues, even after my course ended they were more than happy to answer questions and provide guidance.”
