A note from your teacher
Timothy Atunnise
If you're reading this, I'm going to guess something about you: you've probably already planned something — a party, a work function, a friend's wedding — and people told you that you were really good at it. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you thought: could I actually do this for a living?
The answer is yes. But here's the honest truth — natural talent for creating great experiences will only take you so far. What actually builds a career in this industry is process. It's knowing how to run a consultation so a client trusts you before you've planned a single thing. It's being able to build a budget that protects your margin while still wowing your client. It's walking into a venue site inspection with a checklist and walking out with leverage in your contract negotiation. That's what separates the planners who build real, sustainable careers from the ones who burn out or get taken advantage of.
That's exactly what this school teaches. Every module is built around what you'll actually face in the real world — not just the exciting creative stuff, but the contracts, the vendor coordination, the emergency protocols, the pricing strategy, and the business development that keeps clients coming back. I've built this curriculum to be the mentor I wish I'd had: straight-talking, practical, and relentlessly focused on getting you ready to work.
One of the things I'm most proud of is that this school doesn't just get you event-ready — it gets you business-ready. You'll finish knowing not just how to plan extraordinary events, but how to package your services, attract the right clients, and build a business that actually grows. Whether you want to join a firm, go freelance, or build your own brand, you'll have the tools, the confidence, and the plan to do it.
I can't wait to work through this with you. Let's build your career — one incredible event at a time.
