Organisations are becoming aware of the importance of understanding what their customers want. They also see the necessity to develop products and services that meet their needs and aspirations.

This course consists of marketing-orientated modules with a strong commercial focus. It enables you to:

• develop a theoretical understanding of the discipline

Taking a marketing-led approach, you'll learn how to:
