Learner goals and capabilities

Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from Nipissing University to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over the experience of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.


Learners in this program/experience will be learning about importance of integrated marketing communication. They will be investigating different tools of the promotional mix toolbox (e.g., print and broadcast, out-of-home, PR, personal selling, advertising, social media, etc.) in order to understand the benefits and weaknesses of each tool and hence be able to use the appropriate one for a chosen campaign they are asked to develop.
