Review the Exercises in Professional Event Coordination in Chapters 1 through 14 of Professional Event Coordination. Select one event scenario from any of those listed in the Exercises in Professional Event Coordination in Chapters 1 through 14.
In Week 2 of the course, you must submit a one-page topic proposal for your Final Project Event Scenario selection. The topic proposal will not be graded. This proposal will be reviewed and suggestions will be made where applicable before the Instructor approves the topic and the scope of the proposed paper. Failure to submit your proposal on a timely basis will result in a 5-point deduction from the final project grade.
Below is an outline of the event plan. Make sure you include all necessary components with the final plan. Invent specifications for any specifications not explicitly included in the event scenario. Completed Worksheets must be included as supporting materials.
In Week 5 of the course, a rough draft will be due. The drafts will not be graded, but will contain recommendations to incorporate into your final project. Failure to submit your draft on a timely basis will result in a 5-point deduction from the final project grade.
All papers will be run through turnitin.com, DeVry’s plagiarism software. It is imperative that you cite all sources and that your original content, i.e. your own words, make up at least 80% of your paper. Refer to the policy tab in the course for details on the DeVry plagiarism policy.
The course paper will be at least 15 pages in length (excluding any appendices) on a topic related to the theme of Event Planning and Management. Within this broad theme, the course paper is intended to be an opportunity to explore in some depth a topic related to the course that is of specific significance to you. The course paper is more a product of your critical and imaginative thinking supported by course material and related resources (including current articles) than it is a project in library research.

Budget & Financials (10 Points)
Include a rough, but realistic budget for this event. Include an analysis of where you are spending your money, and how you will fund this event. Also include a copy of the bill you will submit to your client. Discuss how you will make a profit and what financial risks you will incur with this event. Also include how you will pay each vendor.
Reference Page (10 Points)
You must use no fewer than six resources outside your textbook that have an author. Use APA formatting and cite all sources, including the text. All references must be cited in the body of your work and on your reference list. Refer to the course materials in “Student Resources” for help with APA style. Citing an author’s work within your text documents your research, identifies the source for readers, and enables readers to locate the source of information in the alphabetical reference list at the end of the paper. To use the ideas or words of another person without crediting the source is plagiarism. Plagiarism in its purest form involves copying passages either verbatim or nearly verbatim, with no direct acknowledgment of the source. The most common (and unconscious) form of plagiarism is to paraphrase a direct quotation. Paraphrasing does not relieve you of the obligation to provide proper identification of source data. The best way to avoid plagiarism is to make sure all quotes, ideas, or conclusions not your own are given proper acknowledgment in your text.
All DeVry University policies are in effect including the plagiarism policy.
