Former YouthSight AD Opens MRS Training Academy

In London, former YouthSight AD Mia Lorenz has opened her own training consultancy called the Research Academy, which will offer face-to-face and distance learning courses for the MRS Advanced Certificate and the MRS Diploma in Market & Social Research.

Lorenz (pictured) previously led the Custom Research and Insight team at youth, student and young professionals specialist YouthInsight. She also co-ordinated the firm's in-house training programme and helped it become an accredited provider of the MRS Advanced Certificate. Prior to this, she spent more than five years as a lecturer in research methods at the University of Westminster, managing and delivering four core modules of the MA/MSc Applied Market & Social Research/MRS (Market Research Society) Diploma in Market & Social Research.

Her new company offers the two MRS professional qualification courses online or through face-to-face evening classes in central London, as well as a range of research consulting and bespoke training services.

MRS COO Debrah Harding comments: 'We are confident that the Research Academy's high standards and the team's impressive track record will help students become astute researchers who can apply evidence to business problems.'
