Hello Shivesh,

Thanks for contacting Careers360.

Good to hear that you are interested in doing Event Management.

Event management field is all about conceiving the idea of an event, planning it, promoting the event through marketing and advertising, see through the legalities involved in hosting the event, successfully executing it etc. It focuses on using management skills to successfully plan and host an event.

You have both the options to pursue your career in this field after your 12th or after doing your graduation. Since you have asked for the courses which you can do after completing 12th, these are the options:

• BBA in Event Management and PR (3 years long Bachelors Degree course)
• Post Graduate Diploma in Aspects of Media, Marketing and Events (1 year long PG Diploma course)
• Diploma in Aspects of Media, Marketing and Events (1 year long Diploma course)
• Diploma in Event Management (1 year long Diploma course)

Apart from the above mentioned Institute, there are number of other Private Institutes too out there, offering Event Management courses. Usually, the formats of such courses are-

• Diploma Courses- lasts 1 year
• Integrated (BBA+MBA) Event Management course (5 years long)
• Part time training courses and workshops- lasts 1 year or more
• Event Management Certificate course- lasts 6 months
• Outdoors and Adventure Event Management Certificate course
• Exhibition Management Certificate course
• Fashion Event Management Certificate course

Though certificate courses are available in abundance, when it comes to Event Management, I personally feel they aren't much useful. Most of these certificate courses are useless. Looking from the point of view of quality also, the curriculum of such certificate courses are poor and not well chalked out. It would be better to pursue a Degree or Diploma course in Event Management, from a reputed and recognized Institute.
