“After studying online for six months, I recently wrote the final exam and received the High Distinction Award which will help me to advance my career further in the field of marketing. The workbook which I had been provided was very well written by leading marketing professionals around the world. I had a direct contact with an advisor who provided assignments according to an established schedule with reasonable timelines for completion. All assignments and quizzes were marked very quickly so I knew how I was doing. I found the program interesting and very manageable even though I was working full time.”

“I believe that customer experience is the new marketing. From that point of view, it’s a pleasure to hold the CMMP Designation and to be able to offer IIMP®’s professional development courses in Turkey. With qualified people from 192 countries from both professional and academic backgrounds, IIMP® has a strong value proposition delivering only meaningful and up-to-date information that is easily adaptable to the field. It’s a privilege to be able to reach and deliver this kind of usable information where there is so much complex or superficial data all around us. In my experience IIMP’s unique value proposition is elusive because it certainly fills the gap between the learning experience and real life occurrences.”

CMMP® Recognition by Marketing Professionals
Following are statements from marketing practitioners and academicians around the world:
Dr. Christophe Bisson, PhD (Competitive Intelligence)
Assistant Professor
Kadir Has University
Istanbul, Turkey
“The high pace of innovation in the field of Marketing under the influence of Information and Communication Technologies (e.g. smart phone, social media) and globalization (rapid development of countries such as TBRIC i.e. Turkey, Brazil, Russia, India and China), keeps shortening the value of knowledge and increasing the risk of blind spots. Therein, to create a handbook for Marketers which gathers the Marketing knowledge at cutting edge about all topics and from all around the world was needed. IIMP® by having the widest advisory network throughout the world (representing 192 countries) was naturally the Marketing organization which could address this challenge. Thus, the Certified Marketing Management Professional (CMMP®) designation handbook created aims to be the reference for all Marketers worldwide today and in the future through regular updates”.
