Develop and demonstrate an understanding of the scope

FESTIVAL AND EVENT MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT TASK

Each student will submit an assignment paper (in essay format) that describes in detail the roles and responsibilities of a position in the festivals and events industry (in Australia) they eventually would like to occupy (for example the CEO of the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix, the stadium venue manager for the 2012 Olympic Games in London, or the Chief Administrator of the Lorne Pier to Pub).

The purpose of this assessment is to:

  • Examine the scope and significance of a position within the festivals and events industry;
  • Develop and demonstrate an understanding of the scope and significance of the responsibilities of a professional in the selected position; and
  • Develop skills in research, critical thinking and analysis.
