Case studies
Layered marketing strategy diagrams: pyramid, matrix, funnel and progress ring

Built for understanding, then application

Every module follows the same rhythm: see the framework, walk the steps, read a real example, then do a short activity. Nothing stays theoretical.

Frameworks you can actually fill in
Ten browser-based templates — SWOT, STP, BCG, Ansoff, Blue Ocean and more — that save drafts and print cleanly.
Case analysis with a rubric
Structured fields for problem, evidence, alternatives and implementation, scored on a seven-point rubric.
Progress that ends in a certificate
Unit certificates on completion plus the full programme credential, each with a unique credential ID.
