Enthusiastic response to Mastering Intranet Management

ClearBox recently piloted a new course for intranet managers in collaboration with Melcrum Publishing and John Baptista of Warwick Business School. Delegate feedback included:

• “Great course. I couldn't find anything similar in the market place… covered all the topics I was looking for”
• “I have really enjoyed this course and would certainly encourage others to attend.”
• “Very useful!”

The course is for the professional development of people in intranet manager roles. For those new to the area, it offers a structured syllabus for acquiring the essential skills to manage corporate intranets. For those who already have some experience, it offers a way to consolidate knowledge and gain recognised credentials. See Melcrum’s site for Mastering Intranet Management course details and dates
