When we made the decision to offer our students a way to advance their marketing studies, a partnership with the IDM felt like the right choice. We look forward to working together to offer budding marketers the opportunity to learn and grow in their careers.”
Jane Cave, MD of the IDM, said: “In a fast-changing world, it’s important for marketers and the businesses they work for that they continue to cultivate a range of skills. Not just the skills they use today, but also those they will need in the future. We’re excited to work with Pearson to extend our offering to new markets and help train not just the next generation of UK marketers, but the next generation of global talent that will assist the world’s biggest brands.”
