HOSP 2710 - Event Planning, Design, and Delivery


This course introduces students to the planning phase of event delivery to diverse and inclusive audiences. Students will utilize tools, analytics, and techniques in both the direct supply and facilitation of a planned experience. An event is all about people - people coming together to create, operate, and participate in an experience. In that vein, the course explores the supplier solicitation and selection process, as well as vendor relations, and discusses human resources management issues as they relate to staffing, volunteers, and participants. Finally, it examines the performance reviews, evaluation techniques, and knowledge management strategies that help the professional event coordinator to continually improve his or her own performance. Techniques to assist students with meeting demanding deadlines and resolving conflicts will be discussed. Students will practice vendor coordination skills, while reviewing important aspects of contracts. Students will design an event and learn how to book and manage a function from inception to completion.
