Event Organiser Course

The organisation and delivery of triathlon events are the backbone of the sports success in the UK, and the quality of these events is vital to the continuing growth and development of the fast growing, dynamic and modern sport.

Triathlon Scotland delivers an Event Organisers course, which aims to provide existing and new event organisers with the skills and the knowledge required to provide safe and memorable events for all participants.

The course will have up to 12 delegates, allowing attendees to share their own experiences and learn from others, in a relaxed and informal environment. Our delegates rate the course highly and feedback is always positive.  Here is what our previous Course Delegates had to say about their experience:

“This has really helped to give me confidence in taking on the role of event organiser. Lots of helpful background, and highlighting of crucial points I might not have thought of myself! Thank you!”

“An ideal opportunity to tap into a wealth of event organisation experience and effective marketing.”

“Great networking experience and great insight into background work required for running a successful event.”

“I learned a lot from working with others with totally different experiences in organisation. All were very enthusiastic about organising an event and this was contagious . I came away and am already trying to put in place ideas to make our event a better experience. I started the course feeling that others had a lot more to offer than me but by the end I felt that I also had a lot to offer to the group. Richard Pearson was inspirational knowing how many events he has been involved in.”
