Training We Offer
You do NOT need to be a member of the PMA to take part in this training.
We normally provide a variety of workshops and training sessions countrywide. Currently all training is taking place via Zoom.
At Production Manager level we offer topics ranging from legal issues such as compliance and music licensing, to Health & Safety and tax issues. We also cover technical topics relating to production and the current pandemic situation.
For more junior people, we offer a variety of entry level and limited experience sessions, which are open to all - bursaries are sometimes available via Screenskills.
Training events are FREE to members with fees charged for non-members. Prices vary from session to session. Places are limited according to each type of event.

Our Sponsors
The PMA is sponsored by a variety of companies in the film and television industry. We have a long-standing relationship with many of them dating back to the PMA’s inception in 1991.
PMA members benefit from the information and services that our sponsors can provide, while sponsors gain access to the upper echelon of Production Managers in the UK who are major purchasers for the industry.
Become a sponsor
We only have one sponsor per area of business but occasionally opportunities to become a sponsor of the PMA do arise.
Sponsors get the chance to meet our members several times a year, host parties, explain their services and write for our magazine The Bottom Line.
