A number of college and universities will apply the courses taken in the Event Planning Management Certificate.
This program combines business, merchandising and marketing, communication skills and real life experience to help students gain the leadership and management skills needed to plan special events. With this certificate students will be able to develop their own event vision to create events, encompassing the development of an event budget, manage vendor contracts, be able to understand risk management in events, as well to have the communication skills necessary to present themselves and market their events.
Algebra I is a prerequisite for all majors. Students may satisfy this requirement with a grade of “C” or better in high school Algebra I. Algebra I competency may be verified with a passing score on the College’s placement test.
Once students complete developmental coursework (if needed), they can complete the certificate in one year. Major courses are only offered in the evening and not every semester.
