Volunteer Event Planning Positions
Learn Event Planning by Volunteering:

Volunteer Event Planning PositionsAs I say over and over again on this website and in my newsletter, the single best way to learn event planning is to volunteer. There is no online course, no class, and no book that beats hands-on experience. Plus, in this economy competition is tough; so you simply won't land a job without some experience.

If you are a planner and have volunteer positions available that you would like posted to my website (and emailed to my list of subscribers), please
contact me for more information.
Below are some opportunities for volunteer positions. Please do not contact the planner unless you live in the area and are available to volunteer. All opportunities have been posted, so please don't contact the planner (or myself) asking if there's anything in your area that's not listed. Please note these are unpaid, volunteer positions. Please follow the instructions as posted by the planner; otherwise you will not be considered. Good luck!
