Testimonial

Last 1 year has been an enriching journey filled with highs, lows, and invaluable lessons. Embarking on the Advanced Certificate Program in Strategic Brand Management and Communications at MICA | The School of Ideas and Emeritus felt like entering a realm of brand storytelling. Having delved deep into visual brand storytelling and execution for 7 years, I aimed to complement my hands-on experience with well-curated theoretical insights from MICA's top-notch faculty and industry experts. From weekly mandatory assignments to immersive Sunday-to-Sunday brand classes and engaging conversations with fellow batchmates, it was nothing less than crafting a personal brand.
