Event Management Courses in Victoria in 2026   

 

The Good Universities Guide indicates that an event planner or event coordinator plans and organises special events, including parties, wedding receptions, product launches, banquets, sporting events, meetings, conferences, and conventions.  Successful event planners –

  • enjoy working with people
  • good organisational and time management skills
  • have every attention to detail
  • good interpersonal and supervisory skills
  • good communication skills
  • neat personal appearance
  • comfortable working with computers
  • able to negotiate, delegate and work under pressure

 

Depending on the size of the establishment, events coordinators may work independently or as part of a team. They often work irregular hours, and on weekends and public holidays.  Learn more at Good Universities Guide - Events.
