Pre-requisite UnitД®lements describe the essential outcomes. No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. They may work in event management companies, in event venues, or in organisations that organise their own events. It applies to event managers who operate with significant autonomy and who are responsible for making a range of strategic event management decisions. 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. Event feasibility may be determined after, or in parallel with, the creation of the initial event concept. It requires the ability to use advanced research, analytical and communication skills combined with a detailed knowledge of the event management process. If you're running events and think it's appropriate to copy someone else's EMP for your event, then stop running events.This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to assess the viability of a proposed event, and develop recommendations and models for its future planning and operation. If you're running events and couldn't be bothered doing a proper event-specific EMP, then stop running events.

If you're running events and you don't get that, then stop running events. It speaks to their mindset and the value they place on proper planning for the safety of 20,000 people each day. They're looking to have 20,000 people per day at their event, yet people who know about these things believe their first attempt at an EMP was too generic and not particular enough to their actual event.ДЇor me, even if they ultimately put together an EMP that gets the event licensed, that their first effort was viewed this way by the statutory agencies is extremely worrying. The organisers have lodged a revised 200-page EMP and have another audience to get licensed next month. Pretty much all the key stakeholders have raised concerns - police, councillors, Environmental Health Officers and more. I recently read about the organisers of the proposed Billericay festival in the UK being refused a licence to date as a result of their EMP being 'too generic' and 'not site-specific'. Then there are people we can't really expect to know any better. These are people that should know better. I even know of people who have tried passing off our EMPs as their own. I know of people running events for which they're found EMPs or licence applications online and 'amended' them for their own event. I know of events with thousands of people attending that have gone ahead without any EMP-type document. Plenty of people running events don't accept the importance of having a proper EMP. I'm sure you can Google or ask other event people and we could compile a much longer list of uses for an EMP. Provides a solid outline for staff briefing.Acts as a key decision-support tool during the event.Ensures we consider all relevant angles during planning.Provides a road map for the event to all stakeholders.

Helps secure permission for the event to proceed.The Event Management Plan can perform a number of important functions, including: If we're planning it and managing it we follow the same process every time.В The group were a little surprised but, as the discussion progressed, they saw the logic and reasoning behind it. We then discussed how it's our policy to complete an EMP for all our events, irrespective of their size. We spent the day focusing on Event Safety as well as going through a case study on Dublin Pride 2015, where we looked at the entire planning process.

I was back in UL again this week working with the MA Festive Arts class. The EMP is the document that establishes how all the distinct moving parts and disparate elements of your event will work and result in your event being safe and enjoyable. Proper event management planning is vital for any successful event.
