New series of CMU training courses begins, plus survey

CMU Training

As a new series of CMU’s three acclaimed music business training courses kicks off later this month, the CMU Training team are currently developing a number of brand new courses, most in direct response to requests from past participants. Five new programmes are being considered, and the team would like the industry’s input on them – and to that end a very short questionnaire has been posted here, which should take no more then 60 seconds to complete.

Says CMU Publisher and Business Editor Chris Cooke: “Most music business professionals learn on the job, and while that real world experience is invaluable, sometimes it’s good to step back and think about our industry in a more structured way, and to focus on those parts of the business that are less familiar. This is particularly true when shifts in the sector mean that everyone now needs a better understanding of how the various different parts of the industry, not to mention all the new digital platforms, work. Our training courses have already enabled hundreds of music people to do just that, and the new courses we are developing will help even more”.

Each of the existing CMU courses has an upcoming date, with one-day courses covering music rights (29 Feb), revenue streams, investment models and artist deals (14 Mar) and music PR and social media promotions (28 Mar). These one-day courses (11am-6pm) take place in Shoreditch and are just £95 plus VAT. Information and bookings www.theCMUwebsite.com/training.
