Event Management for EAs
Plan, Present, and Deliver Events Like a Pro: Learn how to take your event from concept to live experience, confidently manage resources and logistics, and harness AI to streamline planning and boost creativity.
Course Overview
If you’ve ever organised an event, you know the stress most people don’t see. One wrong detail, a late supplier, a missing name tag — and suddenly all eyes are on you. Your event isn’t just a task, it’s a reflection of your standards, capability, and composure.
This 3-part masterclass gives you what most EAs never get: a proven, professional framework for running events without the panic. You’ll learn how to plan with clarity, prevent disasters before they happen, manage stakeholders with confidence, and show your value beyond logistics.
And yes — you’ll walk away with practical templates, checklists and tools you can use immediately (plus an EA Event Essentials Kit from Jolly to back you up).
