CIM taught programmes and assessment workshops

Choosing a place to study at was a relatively easy choice for me. BPP fitted all my criteria with its teaching centre in central London, a good reputation for delivering professional programmes and offered me the flexibility. I had the opportunity to visit BPP, talk to the staff and view the high quality facilities before I started the CIM programme. This really helped in making a decision as the staff were friendly and helpful something that I have continuously encountered since. All the teachers I have experienced are both professional and engaging. The tutors have been a great source of knowledge and are able to provide many relevant industrial examples. The course has helped me in many aspects of my job and I expect having the qualification will help in for future career opportunities.
