Ho recentemente completato il livello 6 del CIM presso l'Oxford College of Marketing, dove ho potuto scegliere la modalità distance learning che avendo un lavoro full time mi ha consentito di seguire le lezioni e svolgere gli esami secondo i miei tempi. Qualifica raccomandata per gli argomenti che si studiano e apprendono, questo è davvero un valore aggiunto per chi vuole lavorare nel marketing. Inoltre mi sono trovata bene con docenti e team di supporto che sono stati sempre competenti, professionali e gentili. Unica nota di cui non sono stata pienamente soddisfatta, uno dei miei tutor a mio parere non sempre è stato molto chiaro, infatti mi sono trovata a dover chiedere chiarimenti sul feedback che forniva perchè sembrava mi desse indicazioni diverse rispetto a quelle generali fornite sul compito, e al completamento non sono stata pienamente soddisfatta dei risultati ottenuti visto che lui mi diceva che avevo corretto bene il compito in base ai suoi suggerimenti, perciò mi aspettavo di raggiungere risultati finali migliori. A questo proposito però è intervenuto il team del college dimostrando di tenerci alla mia qualifica con un risultato soddisfacente, quindi mi hanno proposto delle soluzioni per incrementare i miei risultati finali, e attualmente sto continuando a studiare con loro altri 2 corsi che mi aiuteranno ad ottenere un risultato complessivo più soddisfacente! Grazie per la disponibilità e la gentilezza!

I'm currently studying the CIM Certificate in Professional Digital Marketing at the Oxford College of Marketing. I have been very impressed with everything regarding my virtual learning: Jane Adrain has been the tutor on my modules so far and she teaches the topic in every engaging and knowledgeable way - having breakouts so topics can be discussed with other students in the class, giving the online learning a social element; tutors are also very helpful and available for questions during assignments; college staff are very responsive and friendly; lots of learning resources are provided and reading materials suggested. Very positive about my learning so far and I highly recommend the Oxford College of Marketing.

Last year I decided to take the Level 3 certification in Digital Marketing with OXCOM and I am so happy with my choice. They provided so much guidance, even if I was a distant learner the support I received was priceless. I landed on my first ever Marketing job and now I am looking forward to completing the next step. They teach you from scratch and after taking the course you have the confidence to apply the knowledge. Outstanding service provided!

I recently finished my studies for a level 6 digital marketing and have had a great experience with Oxford college of marketing. My only complaint is that you get a new tutor for each unit and each tutor was asking me to format my coursework in a different way from the last which was quite time consuming and had me worried at times that I had formatted the previous unit wrong. This was only a minor part of my course however and everything else was great from the platform used, support, webinars, downloads and more. I loved how it was manageable to balance with my work which meant I could stay in full-time work during my studies.

I have just completed my Level 7 Marketing Leadership Programme with OXCOM (MBA equivalent) and couldn't rate them highly enough. I have completed 2 courses with this study centre and they are brilliant. The tutors are great, they push you to do the best you can and challenge you when they know you have more to give. The courses are tough, you really have to apply yourself - it's not something to take on half-heartedly. But if you throw yourself into it they will support you right to the end. The course materials are thorough and the recommended reading was great too. I honestly learnt so much with them. I am thrilled to have passed with distinction. Couldn't recommend them enough.

As someone who’s never been a big fan of studying, I’ve been surprised by how much I’m enjoying my Level 4 Professional Digital Marketing Certification with Oxford College of Marketing. The course is clear, practical and easy to fit around a busy schedule. The tutors are friendly and supportive, always wanting you to succeed. I’ve learned so much already and feel far more confident in my skills. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

I recently completed the L6 CIM Diploma in Professional Digital Marketing via distant learning, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The course content was well-structured, covering all essential areas such as SEO, PPC, social media marketing, email marketing, and analytics. The instructors were knowledgeable, responsive, and provided real-world examples that made complex topics easy to understand. What I loved most was the flexibility — I could complete the modules at my own pace, which made balancing work and study much easier. The resources provided, including case studies and practical assignments, helped solidify my learning and prepared me to apply these skills in real-life scenarios. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to upskill in digital marketing, whether you're a beginner or looking to deepen your expertise. It’s a valuable investment in your career!
