I took the Certificate in Music Copyrights and Royalties (Advanced) course at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great learning experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, from music publishing to royalty collection societies. I found the course materials to be relevant and up-to-date, and the instructors were responsive to my questions. One of the things that stood out to me was the emphasis on practical skills - we worked on real-world scenarios and case studies, which helped me develop a deeper understanding of the music industry. For example, we analyzed the copyright implications of a song being sampled in a new recording, and discussed how to negotiate royalty rates with record labels. While there were some areas where I felt the course could be improved, overall I was satisfied with the experience and would recommend it to others.
