About Wow, What A Great Event!

1. Cynthia did an awesome job teaching this course. I have been in event planning for nearly nine years and was amazed at how much I learned. She really covers all of the components, from beginning to end. The discussion areas were very valuable. Not only did we learn from the instructor, we learned from each other as well. I would highly recommend this course, no matter what your skill level in event management.
2. Wow, What a Great Event is a terrific class that prepares one for the ability to pull off a spectacular small gathering or a large scale event. Students are given a tremendous amount of supplemental information to help a new to event planning individual or even a seasoned veteran. Cynthia's writing style is easy to understand, flows nicely and keeps you interested. This is a great class!
3. I learned more in this online class than I did in my graduate level courses in both event planning and nonprofit management. The breadth and depth of this class has been much more than I expected. I have a large notebook of resources, websites and targeted lessons to refer to again and again. I'm a happy camper!
4. I have helped plan numerous events over the years and thought I had substantial event-planning knowledge. But I was amazed at the amount of new information I learned from this class. I highly recommend it to anyone who will be planning events, professionally or personally.
5. This was a very well done course. Although I did know some of the areas that had been discussed it was nice to have the refresher and there was still always good ideas to take away. Thanks you very much for a great course.
6. Cynthia Grzelak did a superb job instructing this course. There was a flow from one lesson to the next. Each lesson was supported with leads on additional materials substantiating the lesson. The assignments were pertinent to the materials in each lesson and were never burdensome; always enjoyable! This course provided an excellent introduction to the field of event planning and for me not only introduced me to new ideas, but reinforced skills I was already implementing.
7. I truly enjoyed this course. I have taken other event planning courses and this is one of the best.
8. I am just completely overwhelmed (in a very positive way) with the information that was provided throughout this course. I cannot express how beneficial this class was to me. I felt as though I had stepped backstage of a magic show and was able to see how all the tricks were performed. I look forward to taking the knowledge I have obtained in this class and using it to advance my career in the event planning industry.

12. This course was great. I recommend it to anyone even if they only plan parties for their children or PTO. It is a lot of great information.
13. I have managed events over the course of my career but had never been formally trained in doing so. This course allowed me to learn a number of new and better ways to do things! I looked forward to each new lesson. In addition, the supplementary material and web sites recommended by Cynthia will certainly be most helpful in the future! I am very pleased with the experience I have had with this course and would certainly recommend it to others! Thank you!

15. This is a terrific course on event planning, even for those who have experience in event planning. You will learn more than you think possible in six weeks.
