CMU Training

The team behind the acclaimed CMU Training courses today start offering some of their insights for free via theCMUwebsite.com with a new feature called the CMU Tips Library.

New nuggets of information will be posted regularly on the site, most pulled from the popular CMU Training seminars, over time creating a great library of tips and information for anyone working in music. Some will provide beginners guide background information, others concise summaries of key principles for those already working in the industry, and others still an outline of best practice and current trends in different areas of the music business.

Says CMU Publisher Chris Cooke: “Many people in the music industry have never had formal training, and often their on-the-ground experience is focused on one strand of the business. These tips, and our training courses, help such people focus more formally on how their part of the sector works, and to learn about the other people and companies operating elsewhere in the wider music industry. And, of course, this is a business in a state of flux, and our training team have access to intelligence on the very latest trends and developments”.

The first entry into the CMU Tips library – a brief outline of how artists can turn intellectual property into money – comes from the CMU Training course on ‘Revenue, Investment & Deals In The New Music Business’, an exciting one-day seminar that looks at how music can be monetised, the companies who work with artists in that process, and the partnerships and deals (past, present and future) they need to strike to make that happen. This course next happens next week, on Wed 14 Mar, and places are still available here.
