Release: CIM's message to students on A level results day
CIM's message to students receiving exam results today
15 August 2024: Congratulations to all students receiving their exam results this morning. Every one of you should be very proud of the dedication, hard work and perseverance you have shown.
Taking the next step and studying for a marketing qualification is a popular choice - our research shows that three-fifths of young people consider it as an option. It’s a flexible industry that opens up a world of possibilities for the future.
For anyone who didn’t get the grades they were after, or who doesn’t want to go to university, fear not. A degree is not the only option for those interested in the industry. There is great value to be found in marketing apprenticeships, which can provide the all-important practical know-how as well as the theory behind marketing.
Our marketing qualifications are an extremely popular option for young people. Meticulously designed to prepare you for the demands of the marketing industry, these qualifications ensure you have the skills and knowledge to succeed.
We are particularly excited about the launch of our new qualifications. Developed with insights from the Global Professional Marketing Framework (GPMF), these programs are aligned with the latest industry standards and emerging technologies. This ensures that you not only understand current marketing practices but are also well-versed in the tools and innovations that are shaping the future of the industry.
It is vital that young people are aware of the varied pathways available to them, and we are committed to supporting initiatives that provide flexible and accessible routes into marketing careers. We’re hopeful that the new Government will give apprenticeships and other education initiatives the support that they need to help young people achieve their goals.
Once again, congratulations to all who have received their results today. We wish you all the success, and are excited to support you on your journey. We look forward to seeing your contributions to the marketing industry.
The CIM Level 3 qualification is perfect for new marketers and aspiring marketers, giving you the foundation for a successful career. A CIM qualification will help you gain essential skills, enhance your knowledge and develop the core skills required to begin your career as a key member in any marketing team.
