Professional Development Programme
Prepare for the career you want with our Professional Development Programme (PDP). PDP includes training and workshops to improve your skills in areas like:
- writing CVs and applications
- job interviews
- aptitude tests
PDP will help you find a marketing placement role and make the most of your time there.
Study in an enriched learning environment

Their passion, knowledge and research inspire their teaching. This combination aims to enhance your learning experience.

It's your opportunity to say why you want to study your chosen course, and what skills, experiences and achievements you have that will make you a successful student.

When describing relevant experiences, you should demonstrate what you have learnt and how they are relevant to marketing or your future career.
