UKVMA HAS RECENTLY LAUNCHED NEW ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS FOR UK VENUE MANAGERS
A series of academic courses, which can lead to an honours degree, has been developed for the UK’s venue industry – the first time the industry has had a recognised, dedicated qualification.

“The launch of the Bucks New University courses means that we are now able to offer specialist qualifications for people into this industry and that has not happened before. I came through a very different route into this industry and have had to learn a lot in different roles.”
Jan Kozlowski, Bolton Wanderers Football Club

The new academic qualifications are an important step for the industry … and, of course, it was very nice to have a free drink at the end”
