Training

An event designer is someone who will design and execute an overall look for an event. 

Price: $1,500 (*payment options available)
    
The type of events they work on can include: weddings, product launches, fashion shows, conferences, exhibitions, gala dinners,  corporate functions & festivals.  Some designers will also plan, consult and coordinate but more often than not, they will limit their services to design and decor.

 

This course is designed for those already working within the industry, or those who have completed a course in wedding or event planning. The event design course explores the artistic side of creating memorable events. In each unit  students will discover unique and innovative ways to design and transform environments for all types of events and venues. The course is a fun blend of conceptualizing, planning and production with lots of hands-on creativity. Students will practice virtual draping, rigging, prop and centrepiece design. They will also look at how and where to find creative inspiration, design presentations,sourcing materials, budgeting and event execution. Study at your own pace in an interactive environment.

 

Have you ever watched the Oscars and thought WOW - I would love to be on the design team for an event like this? Would you love to know how to use Vivien and train in the field of EVent Design at the same time? If the answer is yes, then this course will put you on the right path.

 

   

 

Your entire course will be based around an ongoing assignment - a Company Awards Dinner. Your mission should you choose to accept it, is to put together the complete design for this event. You will be asked to interpret your client’s initial brief, brainstorm and create a concept, put together a client proposal, source an  appropriate venue, design your vision of the event within our software program and produce a client presentation. Your ‘job’ will be to take the design aspect of this event from start to finish as part of your course.

 

The Event Design Certificate is the most hands-on and comprehensive course available in Australia and it will equip students with the knowledge they need to work as professionals in the Events Industry. The course is completely self-contained and will give you a defined career path at the end of it. Our tutors will be by your side every step of the way and through our Virtual Campus you will feel as though you have attended class without the hassle of ever having to leaving your desk. It also includes a 3 month all access pass to Vivien which you will use as part of your course.
