Your Course

How will I be taught?

This part-time course is taught across 7 weeks and is not consecutive as college holidays are taken as indicated on the college website.

Our classes are mostly face-to face, however, there may be the occasional need for classes to be taught on-line and to complete remote self- study when necessary. You will, therefore, need technology that can support the use of Microsoft Teams.

How will I be assessed?

The assessment method for this module is a 90-minute onscreen assessment utilising Multiple Choice Testing.

Your Future

What Next?

This course is part of the CIM Level 4 Certificate in Professional and Digital Marketing, which consists of four  modules:  Marketing Impact, Planning Integrated Campaigns, Search Engine Optimisation and Social Media Marketing .  If you choose to complete all four  modules, you receive a Certificate in Professional and Digital Marketing. 

Alternatively, you can utilise your skills to progress to a marketing-related career if you haven’t already or elevate your current job role. This qualification bolsters your credibility and expertise within the field and is certain to complement a career trajectory in marketing.

Entry Requirements

What previous qualifications and experience will I need?

Students are expected to have suitable qualifications at Level 3 (for example T Levels or A levels in Business or Marketing) or  Level 4 (degree or equivalent) in a non-related subject area. Work experience in a marketing role is preferable, though not essential.
