MIAC Learning Lunches

We are dedicated to building a stronger music products community and a major part of our holistic approach is to offer better education and training to members at every level. MIAC's Learning Lunch seminars frequently center on the issues that manufacturers, distributors, and retailers must face in their respective professions. Our speakers and instructors are hand selected for their industry expertise and the topics they cover range from management to marketing and everything in between.

The Learning Lunch schedule for MIAC 2011 has yet to be finalized. However, to gain an appreciation for the topics that may be covered, take a moment to read about last year's seminars.
