Partnerships

ICOM has established key institutional partnerships with the following institutions to provide students with progression on continuing education and professional employment.

Education Partners

ICOM is a member of the Berklee Global Partners (BGP) Network, and has an academic partnership, which is the most comprehensive partnerships Berklee has with external educational institutions.
