About the Event Planning Course
The Event Planning and Management course teaches you to coordinate online and onsite events from first concept to final execution. Across the program, you build the logistics, budgeting, marketing, social media, and content skills used to plan corporate meetings, galas, festivals, weddings, fundraisers, and sports events. You coordinate vendors, schedules, and resources, manage shifting workflows under pressure, and apply industry best practices so every event is delivered and completed down to the smallest detail. Throughout the course, you also build experience within a community of students and industry mentors. This event planning course is part of our tourism and event management field of study at LaSalle College Montréal.
