Media Institute: Diploma ceremony for 16 federally certified media managers
In a festive ceremony at the Media Institute, 16 media managers received their federal diplomas. Over the course of about a year and a half, these professionals systematically studied the media industry as part of the Media Institute’s program.
In his graduation speech, Hanspeter Lebrument, President of the Swiss Media Association, pointed out the great importance of inter-company training for media managers. With the entry into the digital age, media companies are dependent on highly qualified media managers. It is not just the diplomas that are important, as Hanspeter Lebrument emphasized: "The Media Institute is not just a school, it is also a laboratory and a company of the future that serves as a compass for all companies as to where we are heading."
