The Event Academy experience was 10/10 from start to finish. Everyone who is a part of the Academy from Claire (founding director) to Rosie & Becs (course leaders), ALL lectures and student services team are extremely knowledgeable in their sector and have a passion to share everything they know with their students helping them to learn, grow and succeed in the events world. I took the 2 week intensive course and although as promised, it is intense - it is totally worth it and I couldn’t recommend enough!

I had the best time on the course, I learnt so much and I wish I could do it all over again! I really can't wait to see what the future for me holds in Events and I hope to be able to continue to use all the confidence, knowledge and experience from the course in my career! The lecturers were all so amazing and we only had one lecture that was rescheduled due to illness which is pretty incredible! The group of us on the course we were all very supportive of each other and I wish we could of had some more time together - but we are keen to keep our network going and regularly meet up!

I was extremely nervous when starting the course and even though it was challenging it definitely taught me a lot. It gave me the opportunity to do get into more events, learn about the events and how to put together an event. Even though not every project was a complete success, I'm glad I went for it. It was well worth pushing through while working full time. Thank you for such an amazing time and doing the course really affirmed my passion for events, hope to get my first events career job soon.

stretched my brain, learnt things i never knew, brilliant support from customer service, nothing was too much trouble for them. Overall a very exciting course. my only one comment is that it would be nice to have a breakdown of results, ie. exam percentage and leave behind documents percentage.

Wow! Such an amazing organisation, team and course - it felt more like a family than a curriculum by the end of it. So well organised from beginning to end, each aspect was clearly communicated - with a helpful online portal to access info as you need it. All the team and lecturers would go the extra mile to make sure you get the most out of it. The two-week intensive diploma is a brilliant mixture of practical, up-to-date, learning from industry experts, who are currently working in their fields of event expertise (quite literally for festivals 🙃) & well thought-out interactive theory, which will equip anyone to be ready to go straight into a job in the world of event management. This is honestly a brilliantly crafted course, delivered by a massively supportive, knowledgeable and pastoral team - if you’re willing to put a couple of weeks aside to invest in this at the start of your career or during a transition between careers / projects - it will make a world of difference, thanks so much to everyone involved!

It was a huge investment in terms of finance been an international student. The teaching delivery especially handling live client and access to internship was worth my sacrifice of time and money. The student service team were very effective.

I found the Postgraduate Diploma extraordinary. There was the academic side for the first 3 months, including 3 projects where we pitched a certain type of event (in groups) to real clients and organised a big fundraising event. For the last 3 months, we did a work placement. It's thanks to the Event Academy that I received my first Marketing job/opportunity and proceeded to become Marketing Manager. I worked in events for 6 years and recently I decided to change industry to build on more experience and skills. All the lecturers were helpful, and insightful and guided us through and through. Plus, I'm still friends with with ex-classmates to this day. Thank you Event Academy!

Amazing - a lot of hard work, but it is so well structured, taught and delivered that it worked really well. Even though my course was entirely online, it felt really supportive and dynamic, and we built rapport with tutors and other students from twice weekly sessions. Tutors give a lot of energy and really care about your learning journey. Highly recommend!

The Event Academy has literally changed my life.... I made a huge career U-turn decision and moved away from working as a medic to become an event professional. My goal was to be happier and healthier and follow a passion and it's been so much more. The guidance and support even after I graduated has been second to none and if you are considering doing a course I would not think twice. My time at the event academy allowed me to get hands on, not just on the course itself, but also as a result of the amazing volunteer hub. Did I mention I got to meet Louis Theroux?! Prior to studying at the event academy I was not getting noticed in the world of work. Now I am really enjoying working in a full time conference production role that excites me. I get to put everything I learnt into practice and I still have so many contacts in my network from my time studying the intensive diploma. I couldn't be happier (or more grateful). 100% worth the trip from Scotland and the money!

The in person lectures were really interesting and it was a lot easier to learn and pick up knowledge when we were doing mock pitches regularly. The projects were very helpful in consolidating that knowledge but it would have been preferable to have an extra week to prep for the exam after project 4. Online lectures were good, it was great to be able to talk to professionals, but they were missing some bullet points to help guide note taking and recap central points. The events academy team was very supportive and gave quick responses to any issues. In general I loved the course and now have a great job! The staff are all amazing, particularly Rosie and Bex

Teenage Cancer Trust is lucky to have The Event Academy as a dedicated long term partner. This fantastic team has raised over £150,000 to support young people with cancer over almost a decade. Led by extremely talented course leaders, their students organise fundraising events as part of their course. We are blown away by the professional and original events they turn round over a short space of time, each one raising significant funds and bringing innovate ideas to the table. Not only that students have volunteered at numerous Teenage Cancer Trust event, helping the charity to generate much needed funds. Working with such a wonderful partner over such a long period, has allowed us to develop a really strong and effective relationship and it makes everyone at Teenage Cancer Trust very happy indeed! More than that, their impact for young people going through treatment for cancer is huge. Thank you!

I completed the Intensive Diploma and loved every second. Since the course and being able to add my qualification to my CV, I have been flying high in my career within the events industry. I’ve been invited back twice since - the first time to be part of a panel, and the second, to be a guest lecturer. Event Academy is the gift that keeps on giving!!

High level material and quite prompt response of the tutors. I completed the online event certificate a couple of years ago. The course was ok, the level was high and they had quite good material. The reason I am giving 3 stars is because to the most important part of the course, I haven't received any feedback of my project at all and exam. And I am talking about the leave behind document (last task) precisely where we had to create a proposal for the 'client'. This part was part of the examination process and it would be marked along with the exam, where for me it is an essential if not the most important part of the course, where they suppose to tell you what were your mistakes and what you should have done better. They just put a mark and end of story, leaving you with the doubts of what you could have done better etc.. although i am sure now they suppose to be better.

I decided to join the postgraduate course in Events Management very last minute but couldn't be happier with my decision. Unlike my undergraduate degree where most of my lecturers didn't know my name, the lecturers and course director are there to support you every step of the way and give regular and constructive feedback throughout. Particularly valuable was the help given with job applications including interview skills. I have learnt so much and feel thoroughly prepared for a career in events. I can't wait to start my internship in April!
