On Friday 14 January 2011 Sheffield Hallam University will be hosting a unique event management master class designed to give Event Managers the tools they need to deliver first class events in a climate of reduced funding.
The UK’s leading event specialists – including three times ‘Event Organiser of the Year’, Mike Richmond from REM Events – will be sharing their innovative and winning strategies. Attendees at the Sheffield Business School master class, can expect insight and inspiration and will leave with new ideas for delivering maximum return on their events.
Other speakers include Vanessa Toulmin from the University of Sheffield and Creative Producer for ‘Showzam: Blackpool's Festival of Circus Magic and New Variety’, and Mark Spincer, Managing Director of Doncaster Racecourse.
Talks will cover the whole event spectrum, taking in large outdoor events, festivals, event venue management and event evaluation.
The master class will also include a series of workshops which will provide delegates with the opportunity to debate ideas and share their own challenges and successes with peers from the event industry.
Phil Crowther, Event Management Hub Project Leader at Sheffield Hallam University, said:
“The master class is a great opportunity for event organisers to learn from leading event specialists and discover new ways to deliver more-for-less in the challenging economic climate. Attendees will gain real-world practical skills that they’ll be able to implement immediately.”
The Event Management Master Class is presented by The Event Management Hub at Sheffield Business School and runs in partnership with Welcome to Yorkshire and Sheffield City Council. Prices start from just £39 including lunch, tea and coffee.
