“ After being in the industry for over a decade, I still found the programme to be very informative & relevant. I cant say enough about how well this course is tailored to the needs of the media and Entertainment industry. It is also laid out over 3 days, in a manner that doesn’t seem packed and is highly interactive. I enjoyed working along side senior management and entreprenuers in this space who bought various dimensions to the program. Having guest faculties addressing taxation, animation and broadcasting helped in wider understanding of the business”
