PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
Purpose:

Learners qualified with this qualification will be able to co-ordinate and manage the broad spectrum of events in the MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) industry. An Event Manager will be able to co-ordination and manage all event genres through all phases, namely research, plan, design, conduct and evaluate in different contexts. Successful event management requires professional skills, allied to proven experience. The eventscape has changed, and the skilled professional will be able to advise on issues of event insurance, statutory requirements, protocol, security and corporate responsibility. The list does not end there. Top quality meeting, conventions, functions and other events needs to deliver on corporate and government objectives and deliver within budget. Professional project management skills are required to coordinate elements of marketing, media, sponsorship, co-host exhibitions, budgets, financial management, speakers, plenary and breakaway sessions, banqueting, accommodation, dietary requirements, dcor, audio visual, entertainment. Sophisticated IT systems are required to administer delegate registrations, transport, social and business program attendance, and to produce a minute-by-minute function plan covering every detail of the entire event. Successful learners will also be equip with the necessary entrepreneurial skills to establish their own businesses. The labour intensive nature of the industry and the various skills levels in event organising will provide employment opportunities for many South Africans at varying degrees of skills development. The industry contributes significantly to the GDP of the country and can play a significant role in transformation.

Rationale:

Event management encompasses a multitude of types of events. Although the industry has delineated itself into various categories such as Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) or Meetings, Events, Conventions and Expositions (MECE), the Convention Industry, Tourism & Hospitality Industry, the Sport Event Industry, the Special Event Industry, and others (as evident by the number of professional associations), they all represent the planning and production of an event that brings people together at a particular time, in a particular place, for a particular purpose. The event genres that may be considered as falling within the event management profession are Business and Corporate, Cause-related and Fundraising, Entertainment and Leisure, Festivals, Government and Civic, Marketing, Meetings and Conventions, Social and Life-Cycle and Sports Events.

The MICE industry represents 32% of the total tourism industry and is one of the fastest growing segments. It is estimated that the whole MICE industry contributes around R20 billion to South African's GDP. It has created 264,000 jobs and pays around R6 billion is salaries per annum in South Africa, contributing more than R4 billion a year to the government in the form of taxes. According to South African Tourism, Gauteng hosts 63% of all events, followed by Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal with 22% and 6% of all events respectively.

This industry is growing rapidly as South Africa offers a modern infrastructure that facilitates the hosting of large conferences and events. With 1,700 conference venues and 47 exhibitions centers, South Africa has successfully hosted many high profile international events in recent years, including the World Summit on Sustainable Development in 2002. Cape Town is recently listed 30th in the world's most popular convention cities. In Africa, South Africa has four of the top ten most popular convention cities: Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and Pretoria. In addition, South Africa is considered a symbolic place to organize international meetings, especially related to the development of emerging countries. According to industry sources it is believed that the sales in this segment have tripled over the last three years, since 2001. It is estimated that venues in South Africa have the capacity for 1,4 million conference room days and 100 million delegate days per year. The South African Tourism Conference Industry study carried out in 1999/2000 established that South Africa hosted just over 101,000 events in 1999. These represent 11,1 million delegates and 14,8 million delegate days. The bulk of the conference demand emanates from the domestic market. The South African MICE industry has grown at around five percent per annum since 1999.

Many regions in South Africa annually host festivals that contribute significantly the city of regions economy. The following are some of the most important festivals and are part of the annual calendar of South Africa:
  • Cape Town has been awarded the prestigious North Sea Jazz Festival, which takes place every March.
  • Klein Karoo National Arts Festival, Oudtshoorn, April. The KKNK showcase the best new Afrikaans drama, cabaret, poetry and music.
  • Standard Bank National Arts Festival, Grahamstown, July. Thousands f culture vultures descend to Grahamstown for a two week feast of theatre, dance, music, visual arts and the best flea market imaginable. This is the biggest, the best and the oldest festival in South Africa and is second only to the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland.
  • Johannesburg Biennale is a somewhat controversial exhibition of cutting-edge visual arts and one of the most Afro-centric events in South Africa.
  • The Whale Festival, Hermanus, September. Apart for whale-watching and cliff-top walks rambled through multi-colored spring daisies, performing artists, including stand-up comics, dramatic actors and musicians provide entertainment. Many local visual artists also use the festival to exhibit their best work.
  • Aardklop, Potchefstroom.
  • Innibos.
  • Hello Darling Festival, Darling, September. Evita Bezuidenhout, Bambi Kellerman and Nowell Fine.
  • Stellenbosch Festival.
  • Arts Alive International Festival, Johannesburg, September.

    South Africa is also establishing itself as a sports destination and has already hosted mega events such as the World Cup Rugby and Cricket and successfully bid for the 2010 Soccer World Cup. It has been estimated that the South African economy will benefit to the value of R21 billion by hosting the FIFA World Cup. However, this does not include tourism spin-offs and other economic activities surrounding the tournament. It has been predicted that the World Cup will attract about 30,000 visitors a week, stretching local capacity to its limits. The World Cup will also unblock various projects, including Gautrain.

    The outlook for employment in the event industry is excellent. International government projections predict that over the next ten years that management positions in the tourism industry in general and in the event industry specific will grow by twice the overall employment growth in the economy. The multidisciplinary nature of the industry offers a wide range of employment positions as well as internship opportunities for students. In addition to being employed by special event companies, people who work in the special event industry can be found working for the hospitality industry in hotels (marketing, catering/banquets, casino marketing, and human resource departments), destination management companies, catering companies, country clubs, not-for-profit organizations, and government entities (universities, parks and recreation, political). Careers are available as event producers, planners, coordinators, meeting planners, managers or directors (associations, corporate, educational, government, or non-profit); wedding consultants or party planners, fund raisers, festivals, or concert managers; sporting events and convention and exposition managers.

    From the above it is clear that a need exists to develop specialized skills for this emerging discipline. Event management is the process by which an event is planned, prepared and produced. As with any other form of management, it encompasses the assessment, definition, acquisition, allocation, direction, control, and analysis of time, finances, personnel, products, services and other resources to achieve objectives. The size and scope of events changed dramatically in the last decade and a new discipline is emerging internationally to deal with the complexities of this multi-disciplinary profession.

    Notwithstanding the above there is currently no public higher educations institution in South Africa offering undergraduate programmes in Event Management.

    In the assessment strategy as a whole, evidence must be demonstrated through a variety of options which can include case studies, problem solving assignments and strategies, portfolio of learning materials, projects, written and oral examinations, log books and practical exercises, presentations and demonstrations. Some strategies will be more suited to assess foundational competence while others are more suited to assess practical and reflexive competence.

    The final integrated assessment needs to measure applied competence. It would be in the form of a written internal examination with external moderation, practical examination and a final integrated portfolio assessment. It should assess whether learners are able to co-ordinate and manage all event genres through research, plan, design and conduct (practical competence), understand the theoretical basis for these actions (foundational competence), and reflect and evaluate the event and make changes to their practices (reflexive competence). A Work Integrated Learning Component will allow students to perform the practical and reflexive competence and will specifically be assessed by a portfolio which will be moderated and assessed in-line with institutional policies. 

  • INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY 
    The curriculum was developed through a comparative analysis of the competency domain outlines of the event industry certification programmes, national skills standards and vocational qualifications from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and South Africa, the curricula and skills standards from several academic institutions, and the topics covered in industry-related books, research and conference proceedings on events management curricula were also investigated.
