We’ve all been there: you’re asked to organise the work Christmas lunch, a baby shower or the school fête - or maybe even a music festival, exhibition or conference - and you have no idea where to begin. There are the invitations, door staff, catering, RSVPs, venue booking, fire safety regulations, and much more to be aware of. Before you know it, the stress of the job at hand has descended and you feel incapable of succeeding.
Sound familiar? It doesn’t matter if you’re looking for a career in events management or simply want to produce a one-off event to remember, the skills required are an advantage in any kind of business - and in your personal life. They’re not skills you’re born with, but can be harnessed under the tuition of the best in the business.
Enter Jane Morley, founder and director of award-winning events agency Superglue. She’s leading this evening course, which is designed to teach you how assemble and manage a team to curate an event - or event business - to remember. Jane will give you the tools to plan down to the last detail, as well as providing you with hard-earned advice on how to cope with the inevitable surprises on the day without losing your cool.
If you want to learn how to produce events to be truly proud of, book your place with the inimitable Jane now.
