How can I become an events assistant?

The qualifications for an events assistant depend on the scale of your company’s business and how they expect you to assist the event planner. For larger corporate events, you may need a degree in hospitality, public relations, or a related field. Many event planners offer on-the-job training for qualified individuals. You may find employment and training or apprenticeship opportunities through organizations like the Event Planners Association or the National Association for Catering and Events. Some community colleges even offer diploma programs in catering and wedding planning.
