Good customer contact and they were entirely virtual in lockdown, so was this not curtail them. Very responsive student support.

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.

I recently completed the CIPR Professional Certificate with the OXCOM team and felt thoroughly supported throughout the course, my tutor Mel provided help and guidance at every stage and I am pleased to be #CIPRQualified, I look forward to seeing where this takes me in my future career.
Sarah M.
I have just completed my CIPR Professional PR Diploma with Oxford College of Marketing, and I am so thankful to my tutor Mel for her excellent guidance and tuition throughout the 12 months of the course. Having chosen the virtual learning route, I enjoyed having the weekly sessions to keep me on track with my studies. It also gave me the opportunity to connect with my peers and share ideas and feedback. The Support team were also incredibly helpful and quick to answer any queries I had, and the online portal had plenty of useful links for wider reading and resources. The flexible setup allowed me to fit my studies in around a busy full time job and planning a wedding all at the same time! Huge thanks to the whole team.

Top tutors, excellent quality of education, and a programme that made it possible for me to complete my degree while working a full-time job! The quality of teaching and academic guidance has been outstanding. The programme was challenging and maintained high academic standards, but at the same time gave me the structure and support I needed to balance university with a demanding full-time career. Being able to successfully complete my degree while continuing to work full-time is something I am extremely proud of, and the quality and flexibility of the programme played a huge part in making that possible. A special mention has to go to Nicole Faux for all the admin support and one for Joe Shami, who has been an exceptional tutor. Their professionalism, knowledge, encouragement and genuine commitment were second to none. During an especially difficult period in my personal life, their understanding and support went far beyond what I could have expected and helped me reach the finish line. This has been a demanding but incredibly rewarding journey. I’m leaving not only with a degree, but with knowledge and skills that have real value in my professional life. I would wholeheartedly recommend the programme to anyone looking for high-quality education that can realistically be combined with a full-time career.

I started studying with Oxford College of Marketing in 2019 to complete my CIM Professional Marketing qualification. The support and advice I've had in that time has been second to none. The online platform is perfect for distance learning or gaining additional support around your face to face classes. During the pandemic it has been a huge relief to have access to the online platform and support whenever I've needed it from the admin team or tutors. Without this, I wouldn't have been able to achieve a distinction in my Strategic Marketing module. It's an excellent education service which I would definitely recommend.
Ace K.
Fantastic organisation who take pride in delivering quality study materials and offer full support and guidance throughout the study programme. I am most delighted with the quality of the course materials and the e learning webinars help to cover the syllabus in easy to follow steps at your own pace. Each session is perfectly balanced and structured to ensure all students have the resources to successfully prepare for the examinations. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to embark on a professional qualification (distance/e learning) structure. Oxcom is the best place to facilitate a future learning programme to help up skill! I would not of passed with distinctions in each module without the highest quality training I have received! Thank you to all the team and I will be enrolling in the future for the next level of the CIM qualification.
