PDA Events Operations SCQF level 7

Professional Development Awards (PDAs) extend or broaden professional or vocational skills and are linked to National Occupational Standards.

The PDA in Events Operations at SCQF level 7 is designed to provide continuing professional development for those who already work in events. It will prepare individuals for employment in the industry at a supervisory level and has options to ensure that learners can choose topics that are relevant to their situation — eg in digital communications, marketing, budgeting, live performance, food and beverage, conferencing, and health and safety.

This qualification is available through a range of SQA-approved centres. It is designed to be delivered as a taught course and will normally be available as a combination of workshops and self-directed study, some of which may be online.

This qualification has been withdrawn and will finish on 31/07/2025. 

This means no new centres may be approved to offer the qualification
