BookMachine Connect has been designed to solve the ‘internal’ publishing discoverability problem – this means that it helps you to find the people who really make publishing happen.

BookMachine have just teamed up with BIC (Book Industry Communication Ltd) to make sure that everyone who takes a BIC course can be discovered quickly on BookMachine Connect. The courses are taught by experts in their field and teach everything from Metadata to XML and ONIX, all about Production, Paper, Ebook Creation etc  – basically, all the core skills that those working in the publishing supply chain need to make a success of their careers.

If you take a BIC course you will be awarded a badge on BookMachine Connect and points, so that when publishers are building new teams they can find you quickly as you will be listed higher. It will also highlight that you have proven knowledge/qualifications to showcase your suitability for the work.
