Event Finance and Management

Course description

The financial management of an event is key to its success. Students must demonstrate skills in terms of budgeting, cost control and breakeven analysis. Students receive an overview of budgeting theory so that they may organize a successful event dealing with a variety of revenues and expenses. These include such elements as direct and indirect costs, registration fees, exhibitor fees, fundraising efforts, cash and in-kind sponsorships, and revenue generating opportunities.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
