Abstract

Academics within events management disciplines should strive to encourage experiential learning opportunities for their students, but should also consider and re-evaluate the importance of reflective practice within this process. In particular, academics should consider the potential benefits of evidence-based practice as part of the experiential reflective learning process in order to encourage the development of key transferable skills and deeper forms of learning that will enable future graduates to become reflective practitioners, with the necessary skillset to regularly engage in continued professional development within industry settings. Further discussion, debate and research on such matters is required within events management literature.
