You may have seen in the media over recent months that the marketing landscape is rapidly changing. From 31 January, Cambridge Marketing College in Bristol will take marketers to the next level.
The Chartered Institute of Marketing has announced a broad-reaching update to qualifications, strategic marketing best practice and the continuing evolution of digital marketing and social media. Everyone who works in marketing needs to be ready to embrace and act on this change.
is needed now More than ever
In a customer-facing role such as business development, sales or marketing, it’s vital to keep abreast of the latest thinking and trends. The days of relying on just a SWOT Analysis and the 4Ps are long gone. Today’s marketers need to be strategic thinkers at the same time as confident communicators and business-savvy tacticians.
Neil Wilkins is Cambridge Marketing College’s General Manager in the Bristol study centre; Neil says:
“There has never been a better time to be in a marketing career. We have so many exciting tools at our disposal to help with developing our businesses. From digital marketing to dashboards for measuring every point of customer engagement, we are well placed to ensure our businesses grow. But with this growth comes significant challenges and the most significant is keeping up with the pace of change. This is why from Saturday 31 January we are running the new CIM Certificate in Professional Marketing course in Bristol.”
