Dubai - The Director EMDI Peter Kagwa, MD Events Ware House Uganda.

The Media, Creative and Entertainment Industry is competitive, fast paced, and are drivers for the global economy. Careers within the creative industry are considered an extremely lucrative option in today's job market. For every course that is offered at EMDI, there is a huge potential for employment and entrepreneurship- where freelance professionals are often sought after for their services. It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to EMDI Institute of Media & Communication, a venture of Greycells Education. Greycells is rapidly becoming a phenomenon in the field of education with an impressive portfolio of institutions spanning from EMDI Institute of Media & Communication (EMDI),The International Institute of Sports Management (IISM), and The World Media Academy (WMA). The Institute is based on a new model of education -- where Industry meets academia to inspire a breed of enterprising students. EMDI was established in India in 2002 to provide professional training for the event management & media industry. Industry stalwarts were asked - what were those key skills that they were looking at in new recruits, and accordingly curricula and training content was structured to full fill this gap. Within the first year EMDI trained over 120 students and there has been no looking back since then. In 2003, EMDI opened centres in Pune & Bangalore and in 2004, they opened their first international operations at Dubai Knowledge Village. Since 2004, EMDI went ahead and diversified their course offerings and launched a programme in Public Relations. All the courses are based on practical hands-on delivery using an Experience Transfer Approach to training. For instance, to further your career in Advertising or Communication, you will be trained by Advertising or PR professionals. In 2008 EMDI was re-branded EMDI Institute of Media & Communication. In 2009 they launched centres in Delhi NCR & Vashi and in 2010 set up operations in Thane & Indore. 2012 has now seen EMDI take the next step -- with their opening of another international centre in Uganda - the city of Kampala, Uganda is now ready to train the next set of media professionals.
