A 2-year course

The Marketing and Customer Relationship Manager is the customer's spokesperson and guarantor of a customer-centric organization within the company, operating in a context of widespread omnichannelity, ultra-digitization and increased competition.
He is the bearer of a 360° customer strategy, combining all channels of customer relations and online and offline marketing communications to create a personalized customer experience that fosters customer loyalty and business development.

In a context where new technologies and e-commerce are particularly prevalent, the profiles of customer-focused "Digital Marketers" and e-commerce specialists are particularly sought-after by companies of all sectors and sizes, who find themselves having to manage a shortage of talent in positions requiring a high level of expertise and constant updating of skills in line with technological developments (e.g. Artificial Intelligence) linked to digital technology.
