I was a bit skeptical about taking an online course, but the Postgraduate Certificate in Visual Arts Law (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business exceeded my expectations. The course content was engaging and relevant, and I appreciated the flexibility of the online format. I gained practical knowledge on how to draft art contracts and negotiate with artists, which has already proven useful in my work as an art consultant. The instructors were responsive and provided valuable feedback on my assignments. My only suggestion would be to include more case studies from the Middle East and North Africa region. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others.
