"After completing a degree in History at Durham University the LCC postgraduate course was recommended to me by a publisher when I was doing some work experience over the summer.

"The MA Publishing opened up lots of opportunities to explore the less well-known aspects of the industry, as well as providing contacts for work placements and training in digital publishing, which is the fastest-growing aspect of the industry. The reputation of my MA course, its excellent skills training in project management, and its contact with Pearson Education are key reasons why I was able to secure the job I am now in as an Editor at Pearson Longman which, along with Penguin Books and the Financial Times group, is part of Pearson plc."
