The world of advertising is big business. In the UK, £16bn is spent on advertising every year and the industry employs roughly 13,000 people. Advertising's global landscape is constantly changing. There are more media environments in which to place advertising than ever before. The ongoing digital revolution has increased consumer choice, bringing more television channels, more ways to purchase products and new outlets (e.g. worldwide web).

The quality and diversity of employees in this industry is vital to successfully building brands in this challenging environment. The question is do you have the calibre of staff to enable your organisation to conceive and create brands for your clients that can compete? Are you seeking new skills to embrace the ongoing digital revolution facing the industry?
