An event planner is, quite simply, someone who organizes events. Imagine having an exciting high-paying job that lets you use your creativity to organize fun and important events.
Getting into the event planning business requires a combination of education, experience and excellent networking. This is one business where the importance of networking cannot be overemphasized. In fact, many consider networking to be the most important aspect of finding a career in event planning. Knowing the right contacts can help get your feet in the door quickly.
To prepare for a career in event planning, you can start by pursuing a degree or certificate from a local university in event planning or management. The book “How to Start a Home-Based Event Planning Business” by Jill Moran includes a list of colleges and universities offering educational opportunities in this field from two-year Associate degree programs to four-year courses both in the USA and in select countries.
