    Curriculum Determined by Leading Marketers

    The curriculum is based on recent research conducted among our chief marketing officer members. Who better to ask than the nation’s leading marketers? Not only do they inform the content of the classes we offer, but they tell us precisely what marketers like you need to do to get ahead in the country’s top organizations. CMOs tell us they are looking for marketers who are able to balance best-practice experience with solid measurement and validation skills. In today’s constantly evolving, increasingly competitive marketplace, professionals must exhibit a cross-discipline skill set as well as proficiency in new technologies. Or risk being left by the marketing wayside.
