The Event Management & Wedding Planning Co-ordination course is divided into fourteen comprehensive modules:

1. The principal issues around setting up and operating a company. In this section you will learn about the legal aspects of setting up a business and the in-and-outs of financing it.

2. The importance of observing Health and Safety requirements. Whilst not the most exciting part of the course, this area is critical to be aware of as ignoring it could land you in heaps of trouble!

3. Environmental and ethical issues. These very pertinent issues are part-and-parcel of planning nowadays as more companies and individuals feel the need to play a part in making the planet a better place.

4. How to plan for private clients. The first of the sections looking at the requirements of specific client groups.

5. The principal logistical issues to be addressed when arranging an event. This is the real nuts-and bolts sections dealing with what you need to do at a basic organising level.

8. Maintaining coordination on event-day. It's no good organising an event in detail if you don't ensure that it rolls out as it's meant to on the day. The main aspects of co-ordination are brought to the fore here.

9. The main aspects of companies' in-house events. As with Corporate clients, companies will expect you to help them achieve their targets so you will have to immerse yourself in their 'culture' if you want to understand this whilst, of course, maintaining your own standards and individuality.

10. The requirements of special events. Whether it's a VIP visit or an Official Opening, these types of events pose their own challenges.

11. The process of selecting an appropriate venue. It's no good organising an event if the venue is inappropriate! Guidance here as to how this might be avoided.
