When the minister visits, the delegation arrives or the institution celebrates, someone must know exactly how it is done — precedence and seating, flags and titles, hosting and gifts, and the running order that leaves nothing to improvisation. This programme trains corporate protocol and event management as one craft: the rules of precedence and diplomatic courtesy as used in business settings, event planning from concept to run-sheet, VIP handling, and the incident-absorbing composure of a professional for whom the show always goes on.

Frequently asked
Who should attend the corporate protocol course?
It is designed for protocol officers, executive assistants and office managers who host, corporate communications and event teams, and anyone responsible for official visits and ceremonies. The programme trains protocol and event management as one craft.
What protocol rules does the course cover?
The rules of precedence and diplomatic courtesy as used in business settings: who ranks, who sits where, who speaks first; titles, forms of address, flags and national sensitivities; and the diplomacy of invitations and the guest list. It then builds the event itself — concept, budget, venue, and a run-sheet in which every minute is owned by someone.
Does it prepare us for VIP visits and things going wrong?
Yes. VIP handling from arrival to departure — the guest never waits, never wonders — and the incident-absorbing composure of a professional for whom the show always goes on, closed by a debrief the next occasion inherits.
