I found the Arts Management and Administration course to be quite informative, with a good balance of theoretical and practical knowledge. As a freelance arts consultant in France, I was looking to gain a deeper understanding of the arts ecosystem and develop my skills in project management and audience engagement. The course provided a solid foundation in these areas, and I appreciated the examples of arts projects from around the world. However, I felt that some of the course materials could be more tailored to the European context. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others, although I do think there's room for improvement in terms of regional specificity.

I'm really glad I took the Arts Management and Administration course at Stanmore School of Business. As an arts administrator in South Africa, I was looking to develop my skills in areas like fundraising, marketing, and community engagement. The course provided a thorough overview of these topics, with plenty of practical examples and exercises. I appreciated the focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion, which is so important in the arts sector. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, and the instructors were supportive and responsive. One area for improvement could be more discussion of the specific challenges and opportunities facing arts organizations in Africa, but overall, I'm happy with the course and would recommend it to others in the field.
