Academy:

The Australian Academy of Wedding and Event Planning offers training and guidance to both new and existing wedding and event planners. Our courses are specialised courses delivered by industry experts who have hands on experience of what is required to be successful within this industry.

The Academy's courses are designed for those who want a quick start in this field to give them an advantage when seeking entry level roles; those who organise events as part of their job, for example a personal or team assistant; or for those who wish to concentrate on smaller, more social events, such as Christmas parties and team conferences.

Our wedding planning course is second to none.  Written in Australia for the Australian market, it will teach you everything you need to know to start your own full, or part time wedding planning business, join an existing business, or specialise within this area inside a venue.

We have aligned ourselves with some fantastic industry partners including hotels, conference venues, event management companies and design teams. It is with their help that we are able to bring our courses alive here at The Academy. Our courses are offered by Distance & E Learning as well as regular workshops held throughout Australia.

At the Academy, our wedding and event planning courses and teaching and support staff are all there to help you build a long lasting and fulfilling career. As the largest private provider of career training in wedding and events planning & design in Australia, and with over 15 years of experience, we have assisted and prepared many students to start careers as wedding planners and corporate event managers.
