thanks to The Event Academy’s Online Postgraduate Diploma in Event Management for Marketing and Communications I finally had a study path that I was passionate about, that I could tackle at my own pace, and with very practical and tangible projects, which not only taught me so much more than just theory, but also excited me and stimulated me to keep going!

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

Wow! When they say intensive, they mean INTENSIVE!! An amazing two weeks on the Intensive Diploma; crammed with so many amazing lectures and a real life pitch to plan and deliver too. 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.

I completed the Intensive Diploma in June and would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a deep dive in to the Events industry. Not only did the course provide me with extensive knowledge of the indsutry but I also got to hear from the industry's best, talking through all sorts of experiences and providing tips and tricks, in addition to completing a live pitch process. This pitch process was fantastic and I learnt more throughout this process than I could have imagined. After completing my course I feel confident that I can enter the industry with a strong base of knowledge to build upon throughout my career. Thank you to all of my lecturers throughout the two weeks for providing an excellent experience and a wealth of knowledge! If you are interested in the Intensive Diploma, be prepared for a full on 2 weeks but know that it is well worth all of the effort!

As a member of the Event Academy Alumni myself, I know first-hand the level of preparation and experience the students receive before looking for full time jobs. Students are of extremely high quality with a positive and hungry attitude to work which is passed over to them by the enthusiastic professionals that provide the different lectures. The course well equipped me to understand what I wanted from the industry which led me into the perfect job that kick-started my career in events. It is all of this plus the detailed and action packed course scheduling that sets the Event Academy aside from other education establishments. I truly wouldn’t be where I am today without the course or the people involved in making it such a success.

I had been searching for months for the right course in Events, and I wanted to find one that was accredited, googling forever I came across The Event Academy and I am OVER THE MOON that I did, what a fantastic course, my employers didn't give me the time to complete the course during working hours so it was perfect to do after work! Sadly I didn't get a chance to watch the the webinars, but they also look amazing and very insightful! - I wish I could go back in time so I had the chance to. The volunteer section also was fab, it is a shame you don't get access after you finish your course, but during it is amazing and I had a couple of great opportunities from this.

What’s The Event Academy truly unique value is that you have a chance to hear from and work with talented and experienced professionals. Their practical approach combined with vast knowledge is a great source of information that you need at any point of your carrier within the event business. As alumnus you can still count on help and support from The Academy. That’s from my own experience! Highly recommended!

I wanted to kickstart my career in Events and I was unsure which part of the sector to dedicate my time too. With the Part-Time Diploma Course, I was able to study whilst working at my 9-5 job and also gain the experience of working on a Live Client Brief. If anyone is looking for a pathway into the Events Industry, I could not recommend this course enough. Since completing my course, I have been offered the Sales, Marketing and Event Manager role at a multi-million pound company based in the North-West and I would not have been considered without this course. Thank you to all the lecturers and teachers who helped make my dream into a reality!

I always knew I wanted to work in the exciting world of events but was unsure what course would be right for me. I have done the intensive diploma and just finished the postgraduate course, which I enjoyed every step of the way. You get to see all type of events and what is really required for each role. In January, right in the middle of my course, I was lucky enough to be offered an event coordinator role for a catering company at Kew Gardens! This course has changed my life, I felt bad for not continuing my studies after high school but the Event Academy has given me all the insight I would ever need. I would recommend anyone who has intrest in events to join this course and they will not only build your confidence and grow your network but they will continuously support you and make you entirely ready for the events industry.

The Event Academy gave me so many opportunities to meet people in the industry, and people starting out in the industry. I was lucky enough to do the Foundation and Diploma course in person, which was really enjoyable and it allowed us to actually put on real life events, where I gained so many tips and experience and met so many wonderful people in the industry who I am still in touch with now. I then decided to complete my post graduate online alongside my full time job. By taking part in the online course I didn’t just meet people in the U.K., I had the opportunity to meet people all over the world and learn about different events over the globe. The lecturers were really supportive and helped with any questions I had and offered lots of advice from their experience in the event industry. I couldn’t recommend the Event Academy enough!

The Event Academy gave me the confidence, knowledge and skills I needed to begin my career. The postgraduate course covers all aspects of the industry, allowing you discover a sector in which you strive the most. After completing the course I was able to begin working in a role that I wouldn’t have thought possible at such a young age. Since leaving the academy I am still in contact with some of the amazing lecturers and cannot thank them enough for the support they provided me while at the Academy. My success is due to them and their passion for the industry. Taking the course was the best decision I’ve made and I am so grateful to the Event Academy. If you are thinking of doing a course with them, I highly recommend it to anyone!

My experience with The Events Academy was great. I completed the online Postgraduate level 7 diploma in Events Management for Marketing and Communications. The projects we get to work on are real client briefs, they give you all the tools and knowledge you need to fullfil them, learn everything you need to learn about event management and prepare you for your next working experience. In my opinion some of the modules could be updated as some of the content feels a bit out of date, however is still useful. I do recommend their courses if you want to step up in your career, work on your skillset and have a better understanding of events in general.

During the first lockdown, I took the level 4 diploma 2-week intensive course at the event academy, and it was one of the best things I could have done. I was still very new to the sector, having only worked in it for about six months in Nigeria, but studying the event academy gave me a new perspective on it. I was able to learn about many aspects of the industry as well as meet fantastic industry professionals, professors, and invited guests. Apart from the educational knowledge you get, the instructors, administrative personnel, and owners of the event school are incredible; they are really kind and personable. It's been two years since I received my certificate, but I still feel like I'm a student at the event academy; everyone is just as friendly and helpful as they were before. Despite the fact that I completed my degree two years ago, I am still in contact with the school since they keep in touch with me and offer me invitations to valuable event seminars. I've also been invited to current student activities, which provides me the opportunity to meet people who want to work in the sector. My experience at the event academy has been one of the most rewarding of my life, and I would strongly suggest it to anyone interested in learning more about the profession!

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at The Event Academy. After graduating from University, I was unsure about the direction I wanted to take my career. Having always had an interest in the events world, I decided to undertake the Postgraduate course to learn more, and I can truthfully say, I'm so pleased that I did! All of the lecturers on the course are in the industry and are successful in their own right, making for not only great teachers with a wealth of knowledge, but also amazing contacts to have when stepping into the events industry. On this course, you learn about all sectors, from festivals to weddings to exhibitions! Not only are you given the opportunity to exchange creative ideas with your coursemates day-to-day, but you are also given the chance to respond to live client briefs. I started the Postgraduate course as a very nervous public speaker and, as this course comes to an end, I feel a lot more confident in this area. The Event Academy give you numerous opportunities to take yourself out of your comfort zone and this definitely enables you to develop and grow. Finishing the course with our live event was the perfect end to this 6-month course. It was an incredible experience to work alongside 20 others to come up with an event concept and then turn it into a reality. I have met some really lovely people and I now feel I have much more of an idea about what direction I want my career to go in. I am certain the events industry is where I want to be! :)
