We are proud to present Alison, our Digital Marketing Co-Ordinator with her certificate for her CIM Diploma in Marketing.

Offering employees the chance to study and progress with their careers is something we strongly believe in here at Variohm, it’s great to have such a qualified team.

What did the CIM Diploma in Marketing Involve?

To complete her CIM Diploma in Marketing, Alison has been attending evening classes every week through Oxford College of Marketing. The evening classes covered the basics of the course but wider reading and research was also involved to pass. For each module Alison was assigned a tutor who she could email for help and advice with assignments and upcoming exams. There was also an online community with discussion boards for students to discuss their experiences.

Support From Variohm

Variohm have support Alison through her CIM Diploma in marketing by allowing her to modify her working hours to accommodate for evening classes and exams. Also some of the modules in this course required access to company information, which we gave her. We supported her through each module.

How has studying Marketing progressed Alison’s Career?

This has been a busy year for Alison, before studying for the CIM Diploma in Marketing, Alison spent a year completing the CIM Certificate in Marketing. She has also been attending regular training sessions at Hallam Internet where she has passed both her Google Analytics and Google AdWords certifications. Completing training and qualifications enables Alison to have the skills to communicate better with our customers.

Completing qualifications and training has meant that Alison has up-to-date digital skills and marketing knowledge which is backed up by lots of marketing theory giving her a deeper understanding to fulfil her job role.

Alison says “I have really enjoyed studying marketing over the past two years, I’d like to thank Variohm for their support, they have given me the opportunity to turn my job into a career.”
