Capstone plan review

Send your full event plan for a review by a working planner. Free for Academy graduates.

Finished the Academy? Send one complete event plan and a working planner will read it and send written feedback. Reviewed plans are noted on your certificate, so an employer or client checking it can see you did the work, not only the quiz.

What to include

  • The brief: client, goal, guest count and date (Module 2)
  • The budget with a contingency line and HST (Module 3)
  • Your venue choice and why, with capacity for the layout (Module 4)
  • The vendor list with what each one delivers (Module 5)
  • The run of show, minute by minute (Module 7)
  • The risk register and a one-page emergency plan (Module 8)

Use the Academy worksheets and templates, put it all in one Google Doc, Dropbox or OneDrive file, and set sharing to “anyone with the link can view”. It can be a real event or one you invent. Reviews are done by hand, in the order they arrive, so allow a few weeks.
