I had been volunteering at events since 2005, when in 2011 I decided to try to get paid work in the industry. My goal started as trying to get into events for free, to getting paid to go to events!
Dreams do come true! This course gave me basic ideas on the business side of events, the administration, and real life experience on how to run a live event.
The major work was a group effort, to run a conference. This saw me take the Games Coordinator position, as during the breaks, indoor mini lawn bowls were run. It was a hoot!
This course was a great experience, I learnt a lot, and since then I have had a lot of paid work in the Events Industry.
