I've just completed the Graduate Certificate in Artist Development at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm thrilled with the outcome. The course was incredibly informative and helped me achieve my learning goals by providing me with a solid understanding of the business side of the music industry. I particularly appreciated the modules on music publishing, copyright law, and revenue streams, as they gave me a clearer picture of how to monetize my music and protect my intellectual property. The course materials were well-organized, and the instructors were approachable and responsive. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my experience and feel better equipped to navigate the complex world of artist development.
