| Question: Whats the structure and scope of Event Management | ||
| Answer: Event Management has two basic segments. Logistics management, which involves organising the venue, celebrities, umpires, spectators, promotions, etc. and marketing, which requires getting sponsorships for event and promoting the event through various media.With the concept of Event Management getting increasingly popular even in smaller towns, the demand for professionals has increased. For a trained person, this is a goldmine, both in terms of business opportunity as well as future prospects. Be it in the field of client servicing, ideation, creativity or simply technical production, the exciting aspect is that whatever you do in the area of Event Management is visible to all and top-of-the-mind. The challenge is to do the job brilliantly, with the reward being pure appreciation which is instantaneous. This makes you feel euphoric and the feeling goes beyond mere money and material benefits.
One can comfortably earn anything between Rs. 8,000-15,000 per month by working as an Event Manager in a company and can comfortably earn Rs. 30,000 and above per month as a small-time Event Manager. There are some institutions like Indian Institute of Event Management which is also offer Diploma in Event Management for undergraduates with the same curriculam and same duration as that for postgraduate course. There are other courses as well which are part time courses (six months) and crash course (part time).
All the best |
