Question: hi i m a class 12th student..i want to ask what should i do after i complete class 12th to get in event management...
 
Answer: A candidate opting for a diploma course in event management is required to pass the Higher Secondary or 10 + 2 course in any discipline. However, for a post graduate diploma in event management a bachelor's degree in any stream is a must. Students may also pursue their post graduate degree from a reputed institute abroad. The aspirant for event management course should have a genuine passion for conducting events. He/she should have very good organizing ability and be flexible to work for long hours. Graduates with excellent public relations and networking skills can opt for this field. However to become an event manager in a reputed firm or company, one must have an MBA degree along with good public relations. Having a degree in public relations along with your Masters in marketing will be an added advantages fro this profession.

All the best,
