What our customers say
This is, I think, the third virtual course I have done with the CIM. I found it very easy to book, joining instructions and pre-course information was great, the course itself was interesting with plenty of opportunity to engage with the course leader and ask questions.
An excellently organised and insightful course that has had an immediate impact on my professional outlook. David was an extremely engaging and accomplished course leader - as credible an authority on leadership in marketing as you could hope for.
A great course. The content was well structured and engaging and David's knowledge was impressive and incredibly inspiring - I'm excited to apply the insights and learnings to make a positive impact in my professional journey.
