What would i have to do in order to become an event coordinator?
Asked by lalala
i know you can major in a bunch of different things to become an event coordinator...which major would be the best choice? (i'm not talking about being a wedding planner or owning my own business for planning events) i would want to be employed at one company and plan events for them...any advice?

Best Answer:
Business, PR, Marketing, tourism and hospitality courses would be extremely helpful. Some colleges may actually have a program called event coordinator. You can talk to a counsellor at a university or college to find out more information. You can try doing an information interview with a couple of people who work in such jobs. They may be found working in hotels, tourism centres and convention centres. Also check out the links below from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (US) and Job Futures (Canada). Good luck
