UK Trade & Investment's US Marketing Scholarship Programme 2009

Understanding the importance of effective marketing in the US

UK Trade & Investment is offering UK marketing executives the unique opportunity to attend a prestigious executive marketing programme at the J L Kellogg School of Management, Illinois.

The Scholarship is designed to give UK SME's and their senior marketing executives a good understanding of the importance of effective marketing in the US. The intensive 5-day course is designed to present the latest management theories and case studies to help to develop long-term business relationships in a very competitive and challenging market. The course can be immediately followed by an executive attachment to a company in the US arranged by the candidate in order to gain hands-on experience of marketing in the US.

Places are now being offered on the executive programmes for our Autumn 2008 round. Candidates can apply for either one of the following:

Business to Business: 19 - 24 Apr 2009 (Spring Round); 20 - 25 Sept (Autumn Round)
Business to Consumer: 26 April - 1 May 2009 (Spring Round); 27 Sept - 2 Oct 2009 (Autumn Round)
