4 DELEGATE SUCCESS Cambridge Marketing College has been established for 23 years and in that time we have educated 6,500 delegates and it is important to us to know that what we do has been of help to them in enhancing their careers. The College carried out the largest survey of CIM postgraduate marketers this year to assess the impact of their qualifications. The results were quite astounding. An organisation that has existed for over 170 years clearly knows how to evolve with the times. The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) today recognises the importance of digital communications as a visit to its website will readily demonstrate. Responsible for this aspect of the RSC s public face is Laura Green who, as a Digital Marketing Manager, has a varied role that includes rolling out best practice for Google Analytics and social media. She currently specialises in web usability testing and manages the internal testing programme for the RSC, making recommendations to optimise the customer experience as well as training her colleagues on running their own usability test programmes. Another part of Laura s role is ensuring that internal communications demonstrate how marketing adds value to the organisation. When she chose marketing as a career, she knew she wanted to work in business, but wanted to be able to use her creativity. Actually, as she ll admit, she also saw marketing as being the fun part of an organisation. Laura adds: What motivated me most about marketing has changed through my career - initially it was about doing creative campaigns and beating previous campaign results; today it is about championing the customer internally to ensure that as far as possible, decisions are made in the interests of the customer. An alumna of Cambridge Marketing College, when Laura started her studies she was a Marketing Account Executive for 20th Century Fox in situ at Play.com. She wanted to strengthen her career progression opportunities and ultimately to move into a management position in marketing. So she elected to aim for the highest qualification offered by CIM: the Chartered Postgraduate Diploma. Even before finishing the course, Laura began to think differently in her day to day job, and was promoted to Product Marketing Manager and then On-Site Marketing Manager at Play.com. The move to the RSC happened later, and she believes the CIM qualification regularly helps in this role. Gaining my Diploma, and then Chartered Marketer status gave me more confidence in my abilities as a marketer to operate at a higher level, and to be able to hold my own in meetings with a senior management team, says Laura. Laura s belief in the importance of self-development is still strong and she uses Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to keep up to date with developments in marketing, and to share them with her team at the RSC. Laura Green, Digital Marketing Manager for the Royal Society of Chemistry It was really valuable for my role at the time and the content helps me shape my strategic thinking in my current role. It also makes it easier dealing with our own marketing teams and agencies as I understand their thinking and processes better. 80% OF ALUMNI NOW HAVE MANAGEMENT OR DIRECTOR JOB TITLES 4 CAMBRIDGE MARKETING COLLEGE

5 90% of Alumni said their qualification is of value in their career development in recognition of professional skills by employers in gaining strategic and marketing skills in gaining confidence in boosting their salaries Over the last 5 years we can state with confidence that their marketing qualifications have been a factor in increasing our Alumni s salaries by an average 10,000 pa after qualifying. In some instances the percentage increase has been significant with some over 50%. Kerry Proctor was an early starter in marketing, having become interested whilst working for a beauty and cosmetics wholesale business in her gap year before university. Even while studying her English Language degree, she continued to work for the company in a marketing support role. Redundancy brought this to an end, and so began her professional services marketing career as she joined CMS Payments Intelligence, as a Marketing Assistant. With several years of practical marketing experience under her belt, Kerry felt the time had come to acquire the theoretical perspective to go with it. She enrolled with Cambridge Marketing College as a distance learner on the CIM Diploma in Professional Services Marketing. Studying by distance learning was challenging, but provided the flexibility to enable me to study while working, says Kerry. But there was also the huge benefit of being able to put the theory I was learning into practice whilst on the job. The support provided by Cambridge Marketing College was excellent throughout. The course was relevant and challenging, and the guidance provided by tutors on draft assignments was extremely helpful. Shortly after completing the Diploma she was promoted to Marketing Manager for the organisation. Keen to progress further in her career and to develop her expertise, she went on to study for the CIM Postgraduate Diploma. The role at CMS Payments Intelligence had provided a fantastic opportunity to gain experience of the full marketing mix, but Kerry was keen to experience marketing within a larger organisation. Subsequently, she was appointed to a role within Sage UK, a FTSE 100 company, in their Accountants Division. Currently, Kerry is a Marketing Campaign Manager in the Commercial Marketing team, responsible for the planning, development and execution of integrated marketing campaigns for a wide portfolio of accountancy software and services. She uses the full marketing communications mix, both online and offline: direct mail, digital marketing, social media, advertising, events and PR. She says: Working with a wide range of stakeholders across the business and creative agencies, my responsibility is to deliver communications that are customer driven, engaging, and innovative, whilst ensuring they deliver the business objectives. Continual developments in technology, lifestyle choices and the economic climate mean that customer needs are constantly evolving, and what motivates Kerry most about marketing is the challenge of recognising and understanding these preferences, and finding new and innovative ways to exceed customer expectations. Kerry is very positive about the benefits of gaining CIM qualifications, and of Cambridge Marketing College. My CIM qualifications have helped me significantly in my career progression. Previously I had a lot of practical marketing experience, but limited understanding of the theory behind it. Now I m equipped with the theory to support and build upon this practical experience; meaning I can look at marketing from a more strategic perspective and, most importantly, it has increased my confidence in my marketing abilities. I m now an Associate of the Chartered Institute of Marketing.

In addition each course has a series of tutor marked assignments and additional activities, which test your knowledge of the material and are marked by our expert tutors. The tutors then provide feedback to you on how you can improve your assignment or exam technique. What really stood out for me on the course was the range of support mechanisms offered by the College: webinars, online resources, revision sessions, one to ones with tutors etc. Administrative support offered by Shane has been efficient, helpful and above all friendly.

13 TAUGHT COURSES SATURDAY SEMINARS As delegates are continually stretched to work longer hours, standard evening classes can be near impossible for many busy executives, and work free weekends with time to relax can be a luxury. Consequently, we offer Saturday Seminars at several Study Centres instead of full taught weekends. In addition to our standard study package, our Saturday Seminar Programme also includes attendance at taught Saturday Seminars for each module of your course, with refreshments and lunch provided each day. In addition there are one day revision classes for each examined module. These classes provide high quality tutoring at a convenient time: seminars are held on one or two Saturdays for each module spread over 12 months. Classes start at 9.30am, conclude at 5pm and leave enough weekend for rest and relaxation. As a guide you should allow between 8 and 10 hours home study per week for each module being studied for the duration of your course. Thank you for a great session on Saturday, it was brilliant and I think I ve encouraged half my team to attend the Digital Marketing Planning session now!
