Summary

You can 'draw up' and 'agree' a programme. If you're 'running' it, you need to 'launch' it. If someone else is offering a programme, you need to 'enrol on' it to 'follow' it. These are some verbs that are commonly used with the noun 'programme'. You can learn these and more with Phil in this podcast.
