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.

pm - 2.30pm (approx)


The shift to a net zero, sustainable economy has become a business imperative.

As broadcasters explore how they will meet the robust carbon targets they have committed to, they will be increasingly seeking suppliers who are equally as committed to climate action.

This session explores the growing momentum for change, the environmental impact of the sector, and the practical steps that companies in the sector can take to build on the momentum created by Albert.

Presented by Susanne Baker of ERM (parent company of First Option).

Subtitling is available with this session.

This event is open to anyone.  FREE for members of the PMA.  £40 for anyone else.  Payment in advance via Paypal.  RSVP by clicking the REGISTER for EVENT button or email [email protected].

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.
