Overview

“Claude Code for Event Managers” is a hands-on course for roles such as Corporate event managers, Event, exhibition and conference agencies and Marketing teams responsible for events. Rather than learning Claude Code in the abstract, you work on tasks from your daily routine – with examples, exercises and templates from Event Management.

Claude Code is not only for professional developers. Business users with no programming background can use it to analyse data, clean up Excel and CSV files, generate reports or build small internal tools, all in plain language. You describe what should happen, and Claude Code writes and runs the necessary scripts itself. This course variant shows you how to put these capabilities to work in your daily job without needing to understand code, and how to check the results reliably before anyone relies on them.

You will work through realistic office scenarios: merging exports from several systems, producing analyses with charts, generating documents and mail merges automatically, or turning repetitive file chores into a single command. Working safely is a central theme: which data may be processed, how you stay in control of approvals, and when to involve your IT department. The result is a set of useful helpers that take load off your team while remaining transparent and easy to hand over.

Events depend on precise planning and many moving parts: concept, venue, programme, speakers, registration, catering, AV, communication and follow-up. Whether corporate events, conferences, trade fair stands or incentives, event teams juggle schedules, budgets and numerous suppliers. Generative AI provides relief at every stage. It develops concept ideas and draft programmes, builds running orders and checklists, writes invitations, attendee information and speaker briefings, answers frequent attendee questions and analyses feedback. AI agents and automations link registration tools, email and spreadsheets so that confirmations, reminders and lists are created automatically. That frees up time for creativity, supplier management and the on-site experience.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.

Practical scenarios from your field

Developing concept and programme

From objectives, audience and constraints, AI develops concept ideas, themes, format suggestions and draft programmes, which the team evaluates, combines and develops further. Budget and sustainability goals are built in.

Running orders and checklists

Project plans, production schedules, run-of-show documents and checklists for logistics, AV and catering are created in a structured way and updated quickly when things change.

Attendee communication

Save-the-dates, invitations, confirmations, travel information and reminders are written for the audience, in several languages, and sent via automations. Content comes from a single source so changes reach every message consistently.

Speaker and supplier briefings

Briefings for speakers, hosts, caterers and AV suppliers are generated from event data, and enquiries and quote comparisons are prepared in a structured format. Everyone knows early what is expected.

Answering attendee questions

An AI assistant answers frequent questions about the programme, travel, accessibility or dress code based on verified information and passes special cases to the team.

Feedback and follow-up

Survey results and open comments are analysed, lessons for the next event derived and post-event reports, thank-you emails and social media recaps created. Metrics such as attendance rate are shown clearly.

Possible hands-on projects

Run-of-show planner

A small web app for maintaining programme items with times, owners and AV requirements that generates a printable production schedule.

Frequently asked questions

How is Claude Code different from traditional code completion?

Code completion suggests the next few lines, whereas Claude Code acts as an agent that handles whole tasks: it searches the repository, plans changes across several files, runs tests and commands, and corrects itself based on the results. You define the goal and review the outcome instead of steering every single line yourself.

Is Claude Code secure enough for enterprise use?

By default, Claude Code asks for approval before editing files or running commands. Permission rules, sandboxing, managed settings and hooks let you define precisely what the agent may do. During the course you learn to configure these mechanisms to match your security and data protection requirements and to assess risks such as prompt injection.

Does Claude Code work with my language and tech stack?

Yes. Claude Code is language-agnostic because it works with files, terminal commands and your existing build and test tooling. Whether you use Python, Java, TypeScript, Go, SAP-related code or infrastructure as code, what matters most is a well-written CLAUDE.md describing your commands and conventions. Each course variant adds the relevant domain focus.

Can AI plan an entire event?

AI quickly delivers concepts, draft programmes, schedules and checklists. Venue selection, supplier negotiations, budget responsibility and a feel for the on-site experience remain your job. In the course you use AI as a planning assistant that takes over routine work and gives you time for creative and critical decisions.

Which automations pay off in event management?

Registration confirmations, reminder emails, attendee lists, name badges and feedback surveys pay off especially well. You connect a registration form, spreadsheet and email sending, complemented by AI for personalised copy. The course shows how to set up and test such workflows without programming skills.

How much does “Claude Code for Event Managers” cost?

The course costs a flat €949 plus VAT per participant – whether online or on-site. This includes 2 training day(s) with a live trainer, course materials, a lab environment and a certificate of attendance.

Can I suggest my own date?

Yes. Our suggested dates are just a guide. In the request form you can always describe your preferred date or period in free text – we check availability and confirm within one working day.

Is the course online or on-site?

Both are possible: live online in a virtual classroom or on-site in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart or Kaiserslautern. We can also run the course exclusively for your team.
