Course Format
This is an intensive course consisting of 12 interactive workshops run over a 6-month period. Delegates must attend at least 9 of the 12 sessions in order to pass the Diploma in Integrated Marketing but we do recommend that every effort is made to attend all sessions; particularly as some of the course work will be addressed and worked on after each workshop.
Delegates will be given five assignments that will be marked by the tutors. Assignments will be set to consolidate what they have learnt but also to stretch and challenge the delegates and will test their strategic and creative ability. The delegates will be given 1 hour after the workshop to begin their assignment, ask questions of the tutor and discuss with their peers.
In addition, all delegates must prepare a response to a set brief. The set brief will be a real client brief and delegates will work on this throughout the duration of the course. A set brief will be issued at the launch meeting. Delegates will be able to work in groups on the set brief. The response to the brief will then be presented individually to a panel of industry experts.
Throughout the duration of the course delegates will be invited to GreenJam evening events where they will hear from leading industry figures as well as having the opportunity to network.
Successful candidates will secure a diploma awarded as a “Pass”, “Merit” or “Distinction”.
An Alliance trainer, all of whom have huge amounts of practical industry experience as well as being top-level trainers, will lead each session.
