Boost your Event Mgmt career with recognized degree/diploma
Event Management is full of action. Studded with glamour and moolah, it presents an alluring career choice for the youth.
Event management is a product of the new age; this is because glamour and flamboyance are attached to social and corporate events of all kinds. From weddings to birthday parties and product launches to corporate meets, everyone is looking to stage the perfect and most stylish event. The unorganised sector is now recognised as a sunrise industry and the demand for professional event managers is flourishing.
If a diploma in event management can take you to the hills of success, a degree will elevate you to the peak. Few years back, there was very little option for aspirants looking for a degree in event management. They had to contend with a private institute’s diploma or vocational training to understand various aspects of event management.
But as the industry stabilised, think tanks of this field devised industry-oriented university recognized post-graduate and under-graduate degree and diploma courses in event management. These will enable aspirants to understand and analyse the industry well, besides inculcating in them the much-needed managerial skills. The next five years will see a demand of over 5,000 quality managers in the event industry.
Why a university recognised course?
A university recognised course is always preferable in education as it is not only a stamp of quality and credibility but also facilitates further enhancement in career opportunities. The course content of a recognised programme is much more comprehensive covering all aspects of management education in line with the industry needs. While a one-year diploma prepares you for event execution field, a two or three-year degree course helps you in mastering the subject.
The industry always prefers a university recognised institute over a private institute when it comes to recruitment. Also, a recognised degree or diploma holder will have an added advantage of getting the perfect mix of practical and theoretical grounding.
