Student feedback
"After graduating in 2006 with a BA Hons in Business, I decided to take a job as a Marketing Assistant. However, my progress in my job soon became stale as I had no specific marketing knowledge, so I signed up for this course. Since completing the course I have now excelled in my job and been rewarded with promotion, a career path to Marketing Manager next year and a significant pay rise to match. I'm now going to complete my Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing during 2009/10."
