This is how the new CIM syllabus looks!

Depending on your current job role and aspirations, there are some great new modules and pathways to follow.

It is really not as complicated as it looks, so why not give Jen a call to discuss it? She is currently enrolling at all levels for a September start.

LEVEL 4

LEVEL 7
CIM Marketing Leadership Programme

All of nesma’s teaching is virtual. Each teaching session is live and interactive via Teams or Zoom to provide you with all the direct encouragement and support you need from your tutor and peer group. This allows you to debate, ask questions, and receive real-time answers. Our cohorts agree that it provides an excellent environment for learning and camaraderie to deliver the desired results.

The best and easiest way to plan your CIM study programme is to call Jen, our Client Relationship Manager, on 07734 222 254 or email her at hello@nesma.co.uk, and she will call you back.
