I recently completed the Masterclass Certificate in Editing and Publishing (Advanced) course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a very enriching experience. As a publishing professional in France, I was looking to expand my knowledge of the industry and improve my editing skills. The course content was very detailed and covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of editing to more advanced topics like publishing law and ethics. I appreciated the way the instructor provided examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts, and the course materials were also very comprehensive. One area for improvement could be the addition of more interactive elements, such as discussions or group work, to enhance the learning experience. Overall, however, I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their editing and publishing skills.
