This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to source and select venues or sites for events. It requires the ability to analyse event plans to determine venue or site requirements; develop selection specifications; and assess, choose and contract venues or sites.
This unit is relevant to events that are diverse in nature and are coordinated in many industry contexts, including the tourism, hospitality, sport, cultural and community sectors.
It applies to event coordinators who operate independently and are responsible for making a range of operational decisions. They may work in event management companies or in organisations that organise their own events.
No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
