Training: About the MBMC

Over the eight programmes more than 100 participants, from some 30 countries, have attended the course and the programme, sponsored by UPM has gone from strength to strength.

The course itself is challenging and hard work, but a highly valuable and rewarding experience.  Many graduates of the programme have developed a strong professional network from their time on the course. And this is just one of the benefits that participants enjoy, aside from the unequalled education and insight that the course provides the course has been a significant factor in many graduates careers.
 
This course is for all publishing professionals who have the ambition and commitment to further themselves and help their brands to reach their full potential.

The 16.5 day training programme takes place in London, spread over nine months between January and September.   There are graded homework assignments and an appraisal system, including course leader evaluations, as participants work towards the award of the Certificate.
