I just finished the Advanced Skill Certificate in Music Copyright and Publishing Business course, and I'm stoked about what I learned! The instructors were super knowledgeable, and the course materials were on point. I loved how we got to dive into the nitty-gritty of music publishing contracts and royalty rates. Now, I feel way more comfortable negotiating deals for my own music projects. One thing that really stood out was the module on international copyright law - it was crazy to see how different countries approach music copyright. The course wasn't perfect, but it was definitely worth it. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to break into the music industry.

The Advanced Skill Certificate in Music Copyright and Publishing Business course at Stanmore School of Business provided a detailed and comprehensive overview of the music industry, with a specific focus on copyright and publishing. The course materials were well-researched and included a range of relevant examples and case studies. I found the module on music licensing agreements to be particularly useful, as it helped me understand the complexities of negotiating contracts. The instructors were also very knowledgeable and responsive to questions. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more African case studies, as the majority of examples were from Western countries. Nonetheless, I found the course to be highly informative and engaging, and I would recommend it to anyone seeking to develop their knowledge of music copyright and publishing.
