Event Management

Humber’s Event Management graduate certificate program includes comprehensive and hands-on training combined with industry involvement and the ability to apply what you have learned through field experience. We teach you essential skills such as venue selection, logistics and time planning, staging, selection of food and beverage, budgeting, staffing, post-event evaluation, and professional expectations. You will learn to design, develop, coordinate, and manage a broad range of events such as corporate meeting planning; film, documentary, and music festivals; not-for-profit experiential events and galas; brand experiences; consumer events; and trade shows.

Additionally, you will gain transferable, practical knowledge and skills in management practices such as planning, design, marketing, human resource and volunteer management, sponsorship, catering management, budgeting, risk management, and event evaluation – for in-person or online/virtual events. Faculty are chosen for their expertise and experience in the event management field and many continue to work in the industry.
