Loughborough Sport's Events Programme is an open education programme to develop Loughborough Students' knowledge and understanding of the Sports Events industry, as well as highlight the variety of opportunities and functional areas in events.
This series of 6 masterclasses will see us invite speakers who have delivered at a large variety of events, ranging from internal Loughborough Sport events to international championships. Each session will see speakers present about their area of work, give an insight into a specific functional area they work within, and share some top tips for those aspiring to make a career in events. These sessions will either take place on campus or Microsoft Teams.
Below is an overview of the sessions, final details will be confirmed prior to the start of the programme.
