I recently completed the Advanced Certificate in Sustainable Catering and Event Planning from Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a great experience. As a Brazilian event planner, I was looking to expand my knowledge of sustainable practices and learn more about how to reduce the environmental impact of my events. The course was well-organized and covered a wide range of topics, from sustainable food systems to event marketing and communication. I appreciated the focus on practical skills and the provision of case studies and examples from different regions and cultures. While some of the course materials were a bit too general for my taste, overall I was satisfied with the course and feel that it has helped me to improve my skills and knowledge in sustainable event planning. One thing that I found particularly useful was the section on sustainable event design, which gave me some great ideas for creating more eco-friendly events.
