About the Course Director
Louise Haynes commenced her events career in 1990 when
she organised the 1st Sydney Spring International Festival
of New Music at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in
Sydney. Roger Woodward AO, OBE is the Artistic Director
of this festival, now in its 14th year. Louise also organised
charity concerts in a variety of venues including the
Sydney Town Hall, Sydney Conservatorium of Music, the
State Theatre and NSW Parliament House.
In 1992 Louise moved to the NSW Central Coast and initiated
the Central Coast Jazz Festival, which ran for 5 years.
In 1997-8 she organised the Festival of Enlightenment,
a series of alternative health festivals in NSW regional
areas. From 1997-2001 she was Marketing and Promotions
Manager for Dooralong Valley Resort, the major sponsor
of the 5th Central Coast Jazz Festival, and introduced
special events ranging from Antique Car Exhibitions
to Degustation dinners.
In 2001 Louise moved to the Gold Coast, Queensland
and lectured in Events Management at Gold Coast Institute
of TAFE, after devising a course to assist students
to enter the events management arena. Following the
success of the course, she published a text book in
2004, An Introduction to Events Management, and now
delivers the course on-line.
