Marketing Manager Apprenticeship Standard Level 6
Duration: 19 months
We are especially proud of the Marketing Manager apprenticeship programme. It is a bespoke, accelerated degree level course which builds confidence, knowledge and skills.
The programme had an exceptional official 80% achievement rate last year (national average for all providers was 46%) and has recently been re-engineered to include AI for marketing managers. This is led by a specialist who conducted research on AI for marketers and presented it on BBC television.
Marketing Manager apprenticeships have proven particularly popular with marketing managers who have backgrounds in other parts of an organisation such as sales, social media, communications or operations, as well as those who especially benefit the additional mentoring and peer support that the programme provides.
The apprenticeship is assessed by the Chartered Institute of Marketing. Apprentices meet the requirements of Associate membership of the CIM. Completion qualifies apprentices for exemptions against the CIM level 6 Diploma.
Typical roles for the apprenticeship include Marketing Manager, Marketing and Communications Manager, Corporate Communications Manager, Product/Proposition Manager, Insight/Innovations Manager.
JGA offers a full suite of commercial apprenticeships.
Marketing manager client-side employers include Sage Plc, Pearson Plc, Centrica Plc, Informa Plc, BBC, NHS, Merseyside Police and agency-side employers such as DRP Group.
