REQUEST TRAINING FOR ME / MY TEAM

Your Trainers

MPG Academy trainers are also B2B marketing practitioners whose ‘day job’ it is to deliver strategies, operations and campaigns for a range of B2B conference and exhibition organisations.

Claire Clilverd Group Head of Commercial Marketing Infopro Digital

I was placed on the MPG Spex Marketing Masterclass to support my new role within my company. I was provided with a robust outline of spex marketing strategy planning, techniques on how to implement revenue-generating campaigns, as well as insightful ways of conducting new business research.

Each element of the training course has allowed me to quickly develop and prioritise the projects on my 100-day plan. The templates and tools that you receive post event are also phenomenal. Researching and creating this documentation would have impacted my workload quite significantly. Therefore, it has allowed me to move straight into implementing what I’ve learnt.

A very valuable course, in many ways.
