Wait, what is CAMPUS?

We’re glad you asked. BookMachine CAMPUS is our growing library of flexible, industry-specific video skills courses for ambitious professionals, business owners or creatives in publishing. They have been designed to give you the knowledge and practical tools you need to learn new skills, apply these to your role and progress in your career.

Courses are no more than one hour in length, and are split into five smaller modules to help facilitate your learning – and fit in around your busy schedule. PLUS you can take courses on the go easily with the BookMachine App.

“I love the CAMPUS membership, though I have to be a bit careful with it as I’d much rather be doing some of those courses instead of my actual work on occasion!”

– Publishing professional, DK

Sounds great! How can I take the courses?

If you’re not a BookMachine member yet, sign up to a +CAMPUS BookMachine membership for just £18/month if you just want to trial a course or two with no long-term commitments. Or, you can subscribe for an annual membership for £180/year (2 months free!). Join the CAMPUS Community by clicking here.

If you’re already a +CAMPUS member, log into your account and head to the new courses using the links above – or download and open up the BookMachine App. Click ‘Start course’ to get started with the introduction, which will then lead you into Module 1.

If you’re a Community member and you would like to take the courses but you currently don’t have access, it’s easy to switch if you pay monthly. Simply cancel your existing Community account at the end of the month and then purchase a +CAMPUS membership.

If you have paid for an annual Community membership and you would like to switch to CAMPUS before your year is up, please email us and we’ll let you know how switching works for you.

“Bookmachine has been hugely beneficial for our team – the wide range of CAMPUS courses are worth the price alone, giving everyone on the team tools to develop and grow.”
