Overview
This one-year graduate certificate prepares students to plan, develop and produce complete advertising and marketing communications campaigns across digital and traditional channels. The programme builds account-management skills for advertising and marketing-communications agencies, covering client relationship management, campaign strategy, creative briefing, media planning and cross-channel execution. Students work on applied projects that mirror agency account-management workflows, developing the coordination and client-service skills used to manage campaigns from concept through delivery. The credential is designed for graduates of related postsecondary programmes, or holders of a diploma or degree in another field, who want to move into account-management roles within advertising and marketing-communications agencies. On completion, graduates are prepared for entry-level account-coordinator and account-management positions in agency and in-house marketing settings.
